The 2016 Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Millésime L’Esprit de 2016 is lovely, wafting from the glass with aromas of crisp yellow orchard fruit, nectarine, white flowers, ripe citrus fruit and warm bread. Medium to full-bodied, pillowy and precise, it's charming and fine-boned, with a pretty core of fruit, racy acids and a pearly mousse.
A firm, lip-smacking Champagne, with oyster shell and brine notes on the nose showing as a streak of salinity on the palate, where it underscores flavors of crunchy pear, smoked almond, dried white cherry and orange peel. Tightly-knit and linear, this will benefit from short-term cellaring or pairing with food; try with fried chicken
