Champagne Blanc de Blancs (New Label) NV 150cl

(6 g/l dosage; LS30B16L1): Pale yellow. Orange zest, lemongrass, jasmine and chalky minerals on the perfumed nose, with a hint of white pepper adding lift.  Juicy, mineral-accented citrus and orchard fruit flavors are fleshed out by suggestions of melon and honey, putting on weight with air while maintaining vivacity. Spicy and focused on the very long, mineral-driven finish, which leaves chalky mineral and floral notes behind.

A rich, leesy version, with pastry dough, macerated apricot, lemon curd and salted butter notes, backed by sleek acidity and a smoky, mineral-laced undertow. Creamy. Drink now through 2023. 5,000 cases made, 291 cases imported. — AN
