2018 base. Medium gold at this point. A medium mousse and good bubble persistence. The pronounced nose is sweet citrus and apples, subtle biscuit, plenty of chalk and some saline. The palate is med/med+ bodied, med+ acidity, tiny and persistent bubbles on the palate, pronounced, long, and dense on the finish. For the class and type of Champagne (house intro blend) this is outstanding!
