Review Date: 06/2022This has a fantastic and distinctive nose of grilled hazelnuts, roasted sesame, goat’s milk, quince, dried lemons and salted butter. Lots of vivacity, with creamy and nutty layers, balanced by citrusy sharpness. I like the salty, tangy and milky contrast. 50% pinot noir and 50% chardonnay. Disgorged 2018 (22 years on the lees). Keeps on getting better. Drink now or hold.

Hints of oyster shell and truffle mark the age of this satiny Champagne, but there's still enough well-knit acidity to keep this fresh, focusing the subtle notes of toasted almond, dried golden currant, fleur de sel and crystallized honey. Distinctive. (AN)
