Glass: Spiegelau Definition Universal. Clear, medium golden with some copper reflexes. Very deep, floral and fruity nose, really beautiful. On the palate wonderful pressure and tension. Ripe apple, some smoke, passion fruit, autolytic notes. Rather reductive. A bit sweet, but not disturbing. Very good length. Beautiful. 92-93

disg 12/22. dosage 6gr/L 70% 2020 base. 1/3 each grape varietal nose - apple, honey mouth - very round but perhaps its a reflection of the dosage? has a homey apple pie quality to it. very easy to suck down, great balance. no harsh edges whatsoever.

3/2022 disgorgement. light gold colored. medium mousse with active fine bead. honey, toast, cocoa, walnuts on the nose. light bodied with good acidity. palate with some sweet toasted nuts, honey, roast apples, oranges, malted chocolate, and a lime zest finish. good finish with a well tempered sour aftertaste. well dosed for a brut, not too rich or cloying. excellent.
