Salmon pink. The attack is nicely intricate, vanilla flowers, red berry heart, with a fresh herbal chalk freshness on board. The palate is linear and focused, with cool tones and citrus rind pungency within. Finishes savory, with an admirable length. From estate vineyards near Epernay, given extra brut dosage with Grand Cru Bouzy still rouge for color, the final blend a majority Pinot Noir, 25% Chardonnay, and a touch of Meunier. Base vintage 2016. Now – 2030.
