  This has really picked up something with an additional year of rest. Some lovely yeasty richness on the nose. The palate seems to have picked up some notes of maturity. At least up front this reminds me of a richer style Champagne, similar to Bollinger. Some wood and apples. Quite delish, at least up front. This fades out fairly quickly. The finish lacks oomph. Given the fruit expression, this was a steal at $40.

  Pale golden color in the glass, vigorous mousse once poured that settled.
  
  On the nose: brioche, butter, bleached almond skins with a hint of granny smith apples
  
  On the palate: layers on layers of citrus with a toasty finish. The bubbles are fine. Quite a good wine, however a blanc de noir is not as focused and linear as blanc de blanc. Not sure which style I prefer.

  Druvor: 35% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir & 30% Meunier. Dosage: 3g/l. Instantanée tillverkas varje år oavsett vilka utmaningar årgången bjuder på.
  
  En elegant doft av bokna äpplen, äppelpaj, jordgubb och smörkola. Munnen bjuds på inslag av citrus, grönt äpple och gröna krusbär. En kraftig syra som drar i mungiporna. Lätt i munnen och medium finish med en fin sälta. Sammantaget en bra champagne med underbar doft som fortfarande är lite sluten smaken.
