Slightly toasty nose. The palate has some honey and citrus, a little sweeter than most bruts, and somewhat cloying for me, which distracts from the overall feel. And the cloyingness persists on the finish along with some minerality.
This isn't bad champagne, but the cloyingness doesn't really work for me.

Reflective gold color with smallish bubbles. Honey and lemon on the nose. Bitter honey notes as well with a touch of lemon zest and a solid mineral core; sweeter than I expected from a Brut. Very tasty and unusual to my Experience.

Highly reflective light gold sheen. Pears on the nose that dominate the wine as well, bright and refreshing.

Creamy, leesy lime, ginger, red-berry. Pungent Pinot (50/50 Chard/PN).
Quince, quinine, white-flowers, & hint of anise. Med+ dosage. Decent.
