Pale golden yellow color persistent tiny stream of bubbles and appealing spicy quince, earthy, pear, baguette and a hint of honey aromas. On the palate it shows a vibrant acidity, and a soft creamy mousse with golden raspberry, pear, and a hint of tangerine flavors with a nice minerality. The lingering finish brings to mind tangerine Alka Seltzer.

Produced from 50% barrel fermented Chardonnay and 50% stainless steel, skin-contact fermented Pinot Noir from organic estate vineyard in the Aube

Pretty average stuff, not at all bad but lacked depth and complexity. Kept waiting for something to emerge but it didn't.

The brightness of the great 2008 vintage as well as the depth are here in this subtly toasty, exquisitely balanced Champagne. A real wower!

Elegant, with a toasty brioche nose, dry on the palate, persistent tiny bubbles and a clean finish.
