60% Chardonnay/25% Chenin Blanc/15% Pinot Noir. Honeys and red berries drip off the nose, coursing over granite and a bit of grass. The palate is textured, alternating between creamy bubbles and zips of acid and light. Similar palate to nose with a wonk of white chocolate. Both savorable (I want to) and swillable (I will), it utterly deserves a place in the glass of even a Champagne snob (not that there’s anything wrong with that).
