This is a standout Champagne, often a wine is highlighted by it's subtlety and suggestive nature, this wine leaves nothing to the imagination in achieving impressive concentration yet an elegant balance.

The nose gives a saturation of white peach and brioche, the palate continues in a similar way with a full mouth feel that teeters on the edge, and is saved by mineral acidity that tapers and controls the expressive palate. This is a wine for the cellar and one to savour, a true showcase wine.
