(NV Pehu-Simonet "Selection" Brut) ($53.00) 70% PN from Verzenay and Sillery. 30% Chard from Verzenay. Disgorged 1/11. 70% ’08 and 30% ‘05’-06. And this is really successful NV; complex, exotic, polished, idiosyncratic yet elegant and classy; spice-cake and mead and a marvelous spicy-cidery finish. Different from Lallement but starting to lick at their heels; this is another step forward in polish and detail for Pehu.
