Bready candy nose. Crisp, but not at all sour, yeasty and long. Some orange flavors. Very integrated. $53

Head looks like a bottle of Bud. Bready nose, with brioche. Creamy, slightly round. Good acidity but not sharp. Quaffer. $62
Sweeter nose, candied strawberry. A little light in the fizz department. Slight perfumed quality. Pears. Interesting. Medium-bodied, a bit sweet. $50
Perfumed nose, lemon apple. Fizzy, strong acidity, light body, fruity, some bread. Creamy and elegant. $64
Ugh. Foxiness overpowers the nose here. Light fizz, foxy, no bread or lemon as in a BdB. Medium- acid. I thought it was a flawed bottle, but their rosé had these same characteristics. Just very much not my thing. $60
Very similar to the BdB. That same foxiness that turns me off. This is fruitier than the blanc. $72
(see all 8 vintages)
