The non-vintage Brut is assembled mainly from two red grape varieties, nearly half each Pinot Noir and pinot meunier with just a drop of Chardonnay. Kept on the lees for 3 years before disgorgement and final preparation, the Brut is big, toasty yeasty with a pale straw color and ample aromas of white peaches and stone fruit. Forthright biscuity and brioche notes complement the fruit aromas reflecting a subtle "British" style of bubbles. Harmonious on the palate, it is elegant and long. This wine is mature yet balanced by bright lively acidity. Despite the maturity of this wine it still has ripe youthful apple and pear fruit. This is an incredible value for wine of such complexity.
