  Disgorged February, 2023. 100% Cramant fruit, 2 grams. Yellow, tight bead. Faint honey and hay. Medium bodied. Although the attack is deceptively sweet, the mid-palate and finish are dry. More herbal than fruit flavors. Good acidity, fine moderately long, earthy finish, but the problem here is lack of intensity and impact.
