An opulent range of grilled nut, plumped white cherry, crystallized honey and mandarin orange peel flavors are reined-in and well-meshed with a spine of crackling acidity in this bold and distinctive Champagne. An iodine-laced overtone of oyster shell and brine imparts a minerality that carries through and lingers on the fine and creamy finish. Disgorged July 2019. Drink now through 2024.
