Notes | |||
"Light gold in color with a delicate creamy froth. Open, expressive nose in which delicate aromas of white flowers mingle with with notes of bergamot. Fresh and expressive, with citrus notes again in evidence along with tropical flavors of passion fruit. The finish is mineral and elegant." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Vibrant and focused, with aromas of saltines, lemons, praline, macadamia nuts, chalk and almond cream. Supple, silky bubbles. Very fresh, yet creamy. Elegant finish." —James Suckling "Disgorged in early 2022, the 2014 Extra-Brut Grand Blanc is quite demonstrative out of the gates, exhibiting aromas of crisp orchard fruit, peach and lemon oil mingled with notions of nougat and buttery pastry. Medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, it's broad and enveloping, with a giving core of fruit girdled by racy acids, concluding with a long, saline finish." —Wine Advocate |
