Notably sweeter than most champagnes we've had recently, although far from cloying; predominant Meyer lemon flavors and aromas, along with apple and pear; minimal yeasty character, despite late disgorgement; controlled minerality; great acidity; long finish.

Ladies love this bottle for the bottle and everyone loves the delicious drink inside. A real crowd pleaser. Nice long lasting bubbles and tasty yeast. Champagne purists are usually surprised its a CA sparkler!

Poured at the WS Grand Tour. I believe this is a new offering from this estate. 55% Pinot Noir and 45% Chardonnay. Only 2000 cases are made. Impressive effort. Nutty and apple notes. Long finish. 91-92 points.

This aged wonderfully developing a darker color and some nut characteristics. Last of them.

The honeysuckle nose just seduces. Great mousse and bubbles. Sophisticated and aging well. No hurry - 2010 for the last of the lot.
