Tasting notes:
Based at the heart of the Côte des Blancs in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, this wine exudes the purity and chalkiness of this village. Other villages add different components: Avize for structure, Oger for generosity, Chouilly for smokiness and Oiry for acidity. A complete wine, this example is a pale lemon-green hue with small bubbles. The aromatics show white fruits and green apples and accents of lemon blossom, orange zest and fresh-baked croissant-like autolysis. Elegant, the Extra Brut-style palate has racy acidity and light body supported with brittle mousse texture. Elegant and beautifully-defined, the wine will pair nicely with Oysters Rockefeller.
