There's something delightfully unconventional happening here - lemon candy and tarragon on the nose, brioche richness cut with a bitter edge, but the real intrigue is this cider-like character playing with something delicate and sake-like. White plums and baking spices. The palate delivers: rounded, full-bodied, yet the acidity keeps everything in beautiful balance. Concentrated, mineral, focused. This is proper grower Champagne - personality and substance in equal measure. Such a pleasure.
Oh what a lemon drop candy punch this has - brioche, butter, delicious cider character. White plums threading through, honey undertones. Rounded and full-bodied on the palate, with excellent acidity beautifully balanced by the dosage - real concentration here. The finish is where it gets even more interesting: spices, fruits, minerality, honey all blending together with a lovely bitter edge trailing off. This is grower Champagne done right - focused, generous, with enough complexity to keep you coming back. Quietly compelling stuff.
