  Jäkligt god. Balanserad doft av röda äpplen, citrus och mineral. Härligt krämig mousse, kraftig och fyllig smak med lagom citrustoner men inte så mycket mognadstoner vilket indikerar utvecklingspotential. Viss trevlig bitterton av citrusskal i eftersmak.

  Snagged this as another random price blip brought it well under market value. Very fine presentation in plump, narrow-necked bottle and sturdy black rubberised card box with plentiful information and magnetic closure. Bright mid gold. Rich, creamy nose with lemon, apple, and apricot, but also something a little muddy/cheesy. Similar taste, a touch disjointed. Tart lime acidity, moderate fruit, but also something mildly offputting. It's okay, and drinkable, but lacks pinot character and hasn't charmed me. So glad I didn't pay the RRP. Pure pinot noir from the Montagne de Reims. [Cork + cage; 12.5% abv; Amazon, £24.23, usually £50-60].
