Aged on lees for 9 years this excellent vintage Champagne is comprised of 40% Pinot Noir, 33% Chardonnay, and 27% Pinot Meunier grapes sourced from predominately (73%) Grand Cru and Premier Crus. A frothy white mousse forms over a pale straw/pale gold-coloured base that’s finely threaded by a very persistent bead. Pronounced aromatics of pear and yeast lees meld into brioche, citrus, oily toast-like notes, dried honey, and almond. The rich, powerful palate is caressed with baked bread, pear, yeast lees, and citrus flavours which have a full creamy-like feel. Elements of roasted almonds, subtle oily cashew, and dried honey characters chime in on the dry, crisp finish. Long, complex aftertaste.
