Super luxury Champagne from this small, artisanal, producer. It's 100% Chardonnay from vintage 2014 done in steel plus 25% reserve from 2013 aged in oak. Aged under natural cork from bottling in 2015 until disgorgement in 2022 (7 years) and finished with zero dosage. It's loaded with rich toast/brioche aromas and flavors and a deep dusting of crushed chalk, which perfectly balances the ripe white-fleshed fruit. Tart, but not astringent, and fresh, but hardly light, it finishes very long with notes of hazelnut, lime zest, chalk and buttered toast lingering. Put a big name producer's label on the bottle and it sells out in a minute at twice the price. Brilliant.
