Aged for 7 months on lees and 28 months sur lattes, this has an elegant, citrusy, hay, orchard fruit, green apple, quince, and pear aromas of generous intensity. On the palate it's dry with elegant and charming bubbles which lift the minerally and spice flavours accented by some autolytic and leesy notes. It has clean acidity that delivers a fine mouthfeel, while the crisp finish has very good length. Tasted June 2024.
