Bloody hell, this is wonderful. Fresh brioche, maritime iodine and sea salt, strawberries, crisp red apples, tart cranberries. Salted caramel. The palate is impressively structured - power and precision in equal measure, remarkable concentration that never feels heavy-handed. Long, vibrant, refined. One of my favourite rosé Champagnes, though I reckon the 2019 edges it out slightly. Still, this is sexy stuff with actual backbone.
