I drink a lot of this wine at home, and every bottle makes me glad. It’s a Champagne of impact; it’s just earthy enough to be marked as a grower but just polished enough to indicate fine Champagne. It’s full of character, solid enough to be toothsome, silky enough to gliss across the tongue. Base wines are unfiltered. 80-20 steel to wood. Average 32-year vines. – Terry Theise
