Nose has recently washed lemon, briney sea spray, cold limestone gravel, nondescript white flowers, cold salt slab and whole walnuts.
Palate has fresh lemon pith, lemon flesh, limestone paste, salty water and crushed shale. Wonderful bottle, acidity and minerality are just amazing. Give this bottle plenty of air and experience it slightly above cellar temperature for happy times.
A fully different experience in comparison to our prior bottle, so yes you can certainly have off bottles of young Champagne. My experiences with oddly showing Champagne, luckily has been limited, maybe one per year or less on average.
20% Pinot Noir / 80% Chardonnay

May 10th, 2020Nose has cold citrus peel, Atlantic Ocean breeze, sliced Clementine orange, (light) cut Spring grass and green banana peel.
Palate has green banana peel, almond mouuse, Saccharin-like inner mouth feel but not sweet, lime zest and a medium-heavy limestone/saline finish.
Bubbles disappeared very quickly in the glass, a mild disappointment.

Superbly mineral. Hint of breadiness. So airy. So elegant and juicy. Balanced and fresh. Almost zero fruit. But saline as fuck on the finish. Beautiful. It’s like Champagne air. That saltiness on the finish is something.
