NV | Champagne Fleury Père & Fils Blanc de Noirs Brut | Champagne l'Alchimiste it is ruby red leading

it is ruby red leading to a nose that is initially smoked but develops aromas of red fruits

followed closely behind by just a bit of buttery richness: brioche

There is fine volume to the delicious middle weight flavors that conclude in an agreeably dry bitter citrus pith finish

Several batches made from two types of sake rice are tasted and then blended after being matured at low temperature for at least two years

I picked the Brut Sonate 2011 to include in my book, which is a little more expensive, but this blanc de noirs is also brilliant, rich and creamy but dancing with a salty minerality. 95 Pts Decanter
