This powerful, rich blanc de blancs is toasty and buttery, showing apricots, toasted brioche, white chocolate, salted butter and nutmeg on the nose. Lemon meringue pie, too. It's compact and creamy on the palate, very intense, yet minerally and salty at the same time. Long and concentrated. The first separate bottling of this single vineyard in Vertus. 1,788 bottles made. 100% chardonnay vinified in oak. 2 g/L dosage. Disgorged March 2025. Drink or hold.
