  (likely a 2000s disgorgement) Wonderful development, dark golden in glass, developed brioche and caramelized salted pralines. Dried mandarin peels, lovely development, juicy, clean and textural. Last bottle!

  Surprise! Disgorging 2021. Damage 7 g/L. Delicate mousse, beautiful fruit and some mild brioche tones, supported by freshness and mild bitter. very good p/q.

  drank with fried chicken sandwiches, delicious although really seemed to be a one note wonder, more air would have added to it but we drank it too fast.

  Champagne Domaine de Sousa Brut Tradition
  
  Dgt 02/2019. Chardonnay dominates by half in the composition, then 40% Pinot Noir and 10% Meunier.
  
  Very spicy and woody nose with citrus fruits.
  
  The palate is like the nose, spicy and woody, perhaps a little too much for my taste while a good quality juice is expressed in the background alternating a chalky then vinous side.The dosage is felt when heating in the glass. Honest finish, very spicy and woody.
  
  Good BSA, which had difficulty expressing itself behind a much superior Bérêche Vieilles Vignes, but which does not disappoint for the price paid at the time.
