Impressed by this Edition Champagne

Provenance paperwork matched what I expected. not blind Fresh, complex, base 2017, lean and acidity driven.

★★★★★

In the palate, the pour shows high intensity, very tight, austere, high freshness, grapefruit, quince, lemony, tiny bubbles that add to its tense and dense structure, long close.

★★★★★

low ratio of reserve wines... Keeping various possibilities open, but I'll probably give it at least a year before tasting it again. Glad we tried it.

This kept changing in the glass; from very full with brioche and honey to a more leaner style. \[Restaurant purchase\] At restaurant The Skiff Club\*\*, Pyla-Sur-Mer FR.
