This has a lovely copper color with aromas of cloves

spiced apples

raspberries

gingerbread and pastries. Delicious yeasty and spicy undertones. Excellent density and focus

with fine and firm bubbles

yet it’s light on its feet and so fresh. Long

chalky and salty at the end. Chardonnay and pinot noir. 3.8g/L dosage. Drink or hold. 96

ginger

spice

rosewater

mint and crushed flowers. There is a feeling of classic austerity that runs through the 2012. I would prefer to cellar this for at least a few years

as it is quite reticent at this stage. Chalk

mint

white pepper and bright saline accents linger on the pointed finish. Dosage is 3.8 grams per liter. Disgorged: first trimester 2023. 95

Vinous

with a seamless knit

this is finely textured

with the raw silk–like mousse carrying flavors of peach skin

white cherry and toast point that show hints of white blossoms

pickled ginger and oyster shell through the lasting finish. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Disgorged winter-spring 2023 (My Origin 121234). Drink now through 2035.
