| Notes | "Nectarine, orange and minerals on the floral-accented nose. Deeply pitched pit and orchard fruit flavors are braced by a tangy mineral note, which adds back end lift and cut. This Champagne has the heft to work with rich foods." (International Wine Cellar) This is serious grower Champagne at an amazing price given its quality and pedigree. Stunning! The San Francisco Examiner had a "near out of body Champagne experience" with this wine and awarded it "Top Wines of 2011, saying "Across the board, the wines are stunning." | ||||
