"Bracing, youthful aromas of lime, minerals, menthol and stone; pure and subtle. An urgent, vibrant, very dry Champagne that shows remarkable power and thrust in the context of its vintage. Very concentrated, tactile wine, with brisk citrus, almond and mineral flavors really clinging to the palate on the very long, lemony aftertaste."
