Decanter95 pts

This is impressively expressive, unique Champagne from the 2018 vintage – one for sommeliers who appreciate the interplay of higher dosage balanced by crisp acidity. Despite its 6g/L dosage, the tension and brightness make it feel closer to 2g/L. On the palate, there’s a wonderful, warming richness with spicy character, baked orchard fruit, floral notes and apple skin nuances. Granny Smith apple and bright allspice add vibrancy, while the finish remains remarkably fresh, bright and dry. This Champagne delivers opulence but remains beautifully balanced by a racing vein of crisp acidity, creating a dynamic and exhilarating drinking experience.
