2017 deg. Great way to start this NYE Champagne tasting! Acid and mineral in spades. I’m craving the toasty tonight, so still looking forward to the others.

Medium straw . Quite green fruit nose , quince , bruised apple , white flowers . On the palate more strict quince fruit with a prominent mineral , chalky , oyster shell notes . Orange peel , white pepper on the finish with decent length with saline tinge . Really quite distinct, for drinking now and over the next 5-7 years .

Fun discovery. Made with all 7 permitted varieties and blended using solera method. From one of champagnes southernmost appellations.
