From the Lallier Experts Collection, the Blanc de Blanc Brut NV is made from a Côte des Blancs selection with some fruit from Aÿ that is fermented 90% in stainless steel and 10% oak, with 80% of the blend undergoing malolactic fermentation. Aged a minimum of three years on lees, it opens to crunchy aromas of lemon, green apple and chalk followed by a light-bodied, linear palate with incisive acid and a finish that is punctuated by a pinpoint of dosage sweetness. Disgorged March 2022 and finished with an eight gram per liter dosage. - Sarah Mayo

A blend of Chardonnay from the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Blancs, this is still young, with a soft fruitiness that contrasts with the mineral texture. Its acidity is cushioned by the relatively high dosage. Drink this perfumed wine now. ROGER VOSS
