I picked up a half bottle of this for New Year’s Eve at midnight as we decided on big plans of staying in. The half bottle was $16 and a full bottle is $33....I tend to assume that a half bottle will cost more than half the price of a full bottle but not here. This would be a great way to a French Champagne without spending all that much money.
I get nothing on the nose.
This one is tart and acidic: white grapefruit, orange zest, a touch of Granny Smith apples in the background all with a bit of toast.
More orange zest on the finish and a mild toasty finish.
Enjoyable and recommended, though it doesn’t approach the wonder of our previous Champagne review, Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin.
