    December 12, 2018 - (Disgorged in 2016, laid in chalk cellars in 2009, base year 2008, 40% Pinot Noir, 35% Meunière and 25% Chardonnay)
    Lovely youthful nose showing seashells, oysters and ocean at first and opens up with yellow apples and citrus flowers in a very fresh and lovely style. Palate still very fresh and youthful and dominated by chalk and citrus acidity before the creaminess takes over and lead to the mandarin peel bitterness on the intense and lengthy finish. Very good evolution over the last year with layers coming together, but still with lots of the fruitful freshness of the vintage dominating the palate. This should be a delicacy in a decade! (Best with 4-12 years of extra cellaring)
