"The wine literally explodes from the glass with intense, heady perfume and vivid layers of Pinot fruit. Clean, vibrant mineral notes add a sense of proportion and balance through the mid-palate and into the finish. This is a Champagne of incomparable finesse and elegance that captures all of the splendor of Bouzy. Needless, to say, it is highly recommended."
