A very pleasant champagne. Lots of red fruit form the meunier, and a nice brioche element from its time on the lees. Nothing mind blowing, but very good for $45

2018 base 48 months 1g/l Slightly pink hue, Pinot really comes through in this cluvee. Very fine bubbles toast and cherry on the nose. On the palate brioche notes, along with rose petals, cherry, and pineapple. One of the best non vintage champagnes I’ve had. A definite aging potential.

Crème de Cassis and espresso on the nose, followed by currant, fig, and blackberry with well integrated oak. Definitely a modern style as opposed to a classic Margaux
