100% CHARDONNAY
This bottle has benefited from 18 months of post-disgorgement evolution, so it opens with age-mellowed creamy tones over a lemony fruit core. Made of Chardonnay exclusively from Oger and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, it has an opulent fruity power; linear and firmly structured. The partial ageing in oak comes across as woody spiciness on the palate. A fine acid structure leads to an intense, zippy lemony finish. This shows quite a lot of ageing complexity already but will take further time well. Club Oenologique – Essi Avellan MW – 2024
