Réserve Brut Champagne Blend
It has been sometime since I have had this white label. Nice pair with Apple Tart from the Adorable French Bakery.
The nose is; bruised apple, touch of apple cider, yellow bruised pear, lime zest, lemon juice, orange citrus with zest, tropical melons, white cream froth, brioche, white spring flowers.
The palate is fresh, ripe, juicy; bruised apple, touch of apple cider, yellow bruised pear, lime zest, lemon juice & tropical melons. Gingerale, caramel notes, honeycomb, understated white spice, sea fossils & spray, white cream, delicate chalkiness, limestone marl, almond slivers, field of white, spring flowers with both lilies, crisp, fresh, lively acidity and nicely made, well balanced finish that lasts 90 seconds.

Sep 24th, 2022Still one of the few family owned Champagne houses, Est 1849! Pale gold with a fine aromatic richness, aromas of stoned fruits such as white vineyard peach, warm biscuits and nutty notes, fine mousse and bubble flow. On the palate flavors of ripe fruits, apricot and pear with notes of citrus, oven biscuits and vanilla. Long finish ending with fruit, yeasty notes and chalky mineral character. Very nice!
