An elegant, quietly powerful Blanc de Noirs with remarkable depth and composure. The nose opens with white peach, preserved lemon and delicate white blossom, layered over a creamy, long-lees complexity. Subtle brioche and fine autolytic notes intertwine with volcanic minerality. On the palate, mouth-coating stone fruit and citrus are held in perfect balance by a delicate mousse and beautifully refined bubbles. The finish is precise, saline and persistent. An aged, Champagne-method Brut Nature that delivers far beyond its weight — poised, serious and effortlessly complete.
