Burnt butter, creme brulee and caramel, dried apricots, bread dough, bread crust, biscuit and dried peaches. More mineral than other bottlings from this producer, this full-bodied Champagne nevertheless packs in so much concentration and depth. Amazing, burnt-caramel and white-stone undertones, reminiscent of fino Sherry. Very long indeed. Drink now or hold.

This release of NV Champagne Blanc de Blancs V.O. Extra Brut (Version Originale) was disgorged in April of 2021. It pours a rich straw color with a golden hue, and the nose is expressive, intoxicating, and round, revealing a generous liqueur of hazelnuts, praline, golden apple, and toast. Dry, with rich extract and concentration throughout, the texture is fine yet persistent with chalkiness and underlying tension, with its toffee notes continuing to envelop the long finish. It is drinking exceptionally well and should continue to drink well over the next 10 or more years.
