WINE REVIEW
A vibrant and lively nose, citrus fruits and fruity aromatics.
Made in the traditional style with 55% Chardonnay, 26% Pinot Noir and 19% Pinot Meunier. Tiny bubbles in the glass carry bursts of rich fruit flavours of Apples and apricots. Toasted brioche aftertaste.
This was a very refreshing vintage, a little more aromatic and quite easy drinking. Great, but I found it the most straightforward of the four vintages that were tasted on the night (2005, 2006, 2007 and 2009).
