Pale, bright yellow. Vibrant citrus and green apple on the nose, with a strong overlay of dusty minerals and ginger. Dry and firm, offering tangy Meyer lemon and orchard fruit flavors, with a spicy quality on the back end. Made in a nervy, sharply focused style, with strong finishing cut and excellent length.

Grand cru Chardonnay gives minerality and a fine texture to this ripe wine. With a dosage that softens the crispness of the fruit, the Champagne has creamed apple and pink-grapefruit flavors that are just beginning to soften. Drink now.
