A precise, intricate Blanc de Blancs with 7.5 years of lees ageing under its belt. Creamy lemon, egg tart, and pear over an undertone of caramel and honey. Pronounced autolytic characters on the citrusy palate with a solid spine of acidity (8.8g/l), enriched by pastry and hazelnuts, leading to great length.
