Bernard Lonclas Grand Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne

What an enticing nose of floral honey, candied lemon and brioche. Stunning interplay of creaminess, concentrated fruit and filigreed acidity on the medium-bodied palate. Very long, vibrant finish with such precision. Hard not to love this. Made from 100% old-vine chardonnay from the Coteaux Vitryats, with such low dosage it could be marketed as Extra Brut. Drink or hold. Score - 95. (Stuart Pigott, jamessuckling.com, Aug. 6, 2024) What an enticing nose of floral honey, candied lemon and brioche.
