January 12, 2024 - Disgorged December 2021. Cherry pit, bitter almond, under ripe nectarine, yellow apple, raw dough, slight honeysuckle. Coarse and fleeting mousse. Rich and concentrated base wine with good complexity. Long length. I really like the dosage level here, it balances the acid really well, with a little to spare, giving it a more rounded and rich style. And given that it is -15 degrees, something richer is very welcome.

December 11, 2023 - Bright and crisp. Yellow, apple, and pear notes. Very slight Yeasty notes. Showed no sign of aging yet. Not complex. Easy, quaffable drinker.

June 12, 2023 - Dégorgé July 2020; friendly, balanced, pure, starting a tad too sweet, but lost its sweetness in the taste.

February 5, 2023 - December 2021 disgorgement at 6g/l dosage.
Pours a medium-pale copper with a mousse that fades quickly. Large bubble. Rich nose - almonds, cherries, lemons and toasted brioche. Medium heavy bodied, nice lift, perfect amount of acidity, and a rich palate. Palate follows the nose. There are what I perceive to be dusty and chalky tannins that presist though the finish. Finish is filled with minerals, sweet cherries, and a bit of dough. I end up with sticky lips after a few sips.
Overall, a good and rich linear bubbly. I think I would prefer this as a Brut Nature - it seems the base wine has enough richness to carry these bubbles.
