This, along with the 2002, was a preview of a future release, disgorged the morning of the tasting. It’s 52% Pinot Noir from Aÿ, Verzy, Verzenay and Bouzy, blended with 48% Chardonnay from Avize, Cramant, Oger and Le Mesnil. It’s bright and zesty in the style of the vintage, its ripe notes of red cherry, pink grapefruit and fresh apple feeling harmonious and complete. It’s notably umami underneath the primary fruit with lees ageing imparting a subtly savoury complexity and it finishes with an elegant nuance and detail. It’s already outstanding, but it will be even more striking once it’s properly disgorged and dosed.
