Winston Churchill's favorite and poured by the Queen at Buckingham Palace; what's not to love!?
Their Vintage Brut is released only after 6-7 years on the lees (sur latte), and this will reward continued cellaring, but is drinking fabulously now. An especially open and expressive nose begins with notes of dried fruit, cocoa, almond and coconut. Allowed to breathe, notes of yellow fruits such as Mirabelle plum and eau de vie add complexity to the nose.
The palate is exceedingly fresh. Crisp acidity gives it a strong backbone that carries right through to the finish. Those aromas of dried fruits from the first nose persist, with nuances of citrus, lemon and bitter orange completing the palate and reinforcing the youth of the wine. On the finish, subtle notes of confected fruits come through, in particular candied orange peel.
