August 29, 2023 - This was really quite lovely; shows a bit of the riper fruit from 07 with yellow orchard fruits and a slightly rounder sensation; but still from the mineral driven area in Oger which gives it a lovely saline sense of balance; drinking well now; don't see a ton of upside for further aging, but should hold for some time

September 10, 2022 - Hand harvested from a single plot in Oger.
Fermented in stainless steel tanks and no malolactic fermentation. aged one year on lees prior to secondary fermentation. Extended tirage and bottled with a 5.6 g/l dosage.
Golden in color with a fine mousse. Expressive aromas show notes of light toffee, marzipan, baked puff pastry, and biscotti that come with scents of wildflowers, green apple, Asian pear, lemon peel and white nectarine and hints of chalky minerals, acacia and honey.
The palate is supple and round with a fine bubble structure, high toned acidity and moderate phenolic bitterness. Flavors show richness and intensity with notes of green apple, preserved lemon, and nectarine that come with honeyed biscuits, pastry dough, almond, acacia and flowers finishing with chalk and minerality. Long and lingering through the long finish.
