Tasted by: Michael Edwards, Simon Field MW, Tim Hall
(at Decanter's July 2017 Grower Champagne Panel Tasting, 01 Mar 2017)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2022
Playful and zesty, with notes of mandarin and lemon complementing the red fruit; an affable forward style, intentionally somewhat light-hearted but with immediate appeal as a result.
