For those who enjoy an abundance of yeast character in their Champagne, they will like this effort because there is indeed plenty of it to the citrusy, cool and pure nose of citrus and apple-scented nose. There is also ample mousse to the refined and equally pure middle weight flavors where the yeast character exhibited by the nose can also be found in abundance on the citrusy, complex and balanced finish. This is much finer and more elegant than the typical 2009 and while it is undeniably rich and relatively full-bodied, it manages to avoid being unduly top heavy or ponderous. In addition, this could already be enjoyed or held for a few years first.
