A beautiful champagne with some intriguing complexity as it opens. Notes of lemon, lime zest, red apple, stone fruit, almond, toasted biscuit, marzipan, yeast, and some hints of minerality. Medium plus bodied, but very effervescent. High acidity with a touch of saline on the finish.
Complex aromas of golden delicious apple, grapefruit, sultanas, blossom and rising bread dough.
On the palate, bruised apple, honey, nutmeg and biscuits. More austere than forward.
Creamy mouthfeel with nice acid and a fine mousse.
Tasted November 2016.
Not quite Roederer's Cristal, but a nice Champagne nonetheless (at a fraction of the price). Tasted October 2013.
