\nLow dosage of 5 g\/l, Blanc de Blancs. Very stylish, fresh, lemony and creamy with subtle toast. Very fine and linear with a bit of depth but also lovely purity and complexity. Fabulous stuff. 94\/100 (Lea & Sandeman stock this for \u00a345.95; Berry Bros & Rudd have it for \u00a350)<\/p>\n![\"champagne](\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com:\/wineblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/champagne-savart-louverture-500x315.jpg\")

\n100% Pinot Noir, 7 g\/litre dosage, disgorged July 2015. Ecuil 1er Cru. Fruity and rounded with nice apples and pears. Attractive with some subtle oxidative notes and a lively apple and citrus fruitiness on the palate. Primary and fruity with a youthful feel, this is really good. 91\/100 (\u00a330 Roberson)<\/p>\n![\"champagne](\"http:\/\/www.wineanorak.com:\/wineblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/jacques-selosse-initial-500x335.jpg\")

\nThis is a Blanc de Blancs from three successive harvests, and from three Grand Cru sites: Avize, Cramant and Oger. Disgorged May 2012. Tremendously rich and vinous, and well integrated. Pear, ripe apple, spice and a hint of honey with nice citrus fruit, too, as well as white peach. Textured and complex and broad, this is showing incredible balance and complexity. So distinctive. 95\/100<\/p>\n\n
