Not much of a nose beyond dry toast, on the palate, green fruit, citrus, very pleasant buttery, floral and herbal notes with a clean finish. Small to medium bubbles. Good QPR.

Organic & biodynamic. 64% pinot gris, 25% auxerrois, 11% chardonnay as indicated by Sophie Barmès. Disgorged November 2, 2022. The nose on this particular vintage is quite floral/mineral but not at all in an off-putting way. Although this spent a substantial amount of time on lees, both the nose and the palate remain very fresh and bright with just delicate hints of autolytic evolution. Lovely, lengthy, slightly salty/briny finish.
APPEARANCE: Color & intensity: pale lemon
NOSE: Intensity: medium Aromas: white flowers, pear, bread dough, crushed stone, lemon zest, lemon, green apple Development: developing
PALATE: Sweetness: dry Acidity: medium (+) Alcohol: medium Body: medium Mousse: delicate Intensity: medium (+) Flavors: white peach, lemon, lemon zest, crushed stone, bread dough, dried flowers, hint of salt Finish: medium (+)
CONCLUSIONS: Quality level: very good Potential for ageing: can drink now, but has good potential for further ageing
