The blend is 93% Chardonnay and 7% Pinot Noir, hand-picked and matured for five years on lees before being disgorged in 2024. The nose shows citrus, green apple and white peach with white flowers, oyster shell, almond and delicate pâtisserie notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOn the palate, it is dry, taut and finely textured with youthful acidity and a persistent, delicate mousse. Green apple and citrus are layered with clover, honey, toasted nuts and savoury lees complexity, while a saline, chalky mineral character brings precision and tension. The finish is exceptionally long, fresh and focused, with the extended lees ageing adding depth without sacrificing energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for sparkling wine drinkers who enjoy serious, age-worthy méthode traditionnelle wines with fine bubbles, mineral freshness and complex lees character.
