BUY THE WINE

Michael Edwards: Bingo! Lovely Champagne of controlled autolysis, secondary vinous flavors, toastiness, vinosity. 17.5

Andrew Jefford: Full-gold; gentle mousse. Bread and honeycomb, but a slight chemical note, too. Vividly and thrustingly acidic on the palate, with some counterbalancing dosage, but not the vinosity or secondary overtones to counterbalance the acidity. An intense blanc de blancs, but beginning to look just a little gaunt now. 13.5

Tom Stevenson: Immaculately integrated oak and brilliant, yeast-complexed Chardonnay fruit. So focused and so precise. Magical! | 20
