Aged on its lees for 5 years, this blend of 53% Pinot Noir, 42% Chardonnay, and 5% Pinot Meunier has a medium-high intensity nose that is fresh and ripe with toasty, brioche, lemon citrus, pear, and apple aromas, plus touches of autolytic, pastry, and biscuit notes adding complexity and interest. It's medium-full bodied and dry with a very nice, richly rounded and textured mouthfeel. Appealing flavours of pear, apple, lemon citrus, honey, pastry, and biscuit. It has clean acidity and elegant mousse. The long, balanced finish has excellent length. Tasted May 2025. Score: 91+ pts
