(L. Aubry "La Nombre d’Or Sablé Blanc de Blancs") ($86.00) “Sablé” is the term Aubrys use for Champagne with lower-than-normal pressure, but pay heed to the “des” in Blanc des Blancs because this wine has 40% Chard, 30% Petit Meslier and 30% Arbanne, and it is extremely dry with 2 g.l. RS. The Arbanne seems prominent here, all that green-meadowy stuff; oystery and precise and long with bouquet garni; it’s a pre-disgorged sample of a wine available in late 2008, and it’s a powerful individual wine for all of you with eclectic tastes.

Fantastic. Mix of citrus and toasty elements. Still showing very young, but coming along really well.
