Merchant's description

The 2008 was the first vintage to be held back and released out of sequence. This was done to ensure that it had achieved the perfect balance. This is a stunningly impressive Champagne with an abundance of white flower, citrus and stone fruit aroma. Pure and sleek, on the palate, the fruit is well-defined, tempered by fresh acidity and enhanced by subtle smokiness.
