Jean Baillette-Prudhomme
Premier Cru Brut Réserve
$68
Clear, luminous, and effervescent, this is unmistakably Premier Cru. The bubbles rise in regular streams and form a full bead on the surface.
On first sniff, you might smell apple, red currant, and yeasty notes, followed by a smorgasbord of white flowers, bread, and tart candy.
Bubbles snap and pop under tongue— delicate and soft, delightful effervescence. Finishes long with the perfect balance of acid and sugar. A roundness that’s just right.- Vintage: 50% 2016, 50% vin de réserve
