Jean Baillette-Prudhomme
Premier Cru Extra Brut Réserve
$68
Clear, luminous, and effervescent, this is unmistakably Premier Cru. The frothy golden bubbles rise in regular streams and form a full bead on the surface.
Right up front you’ll get notes of red apple skin, juicy red currant, and doughy brioche, followed by a smorgasbord of white flowers.
Delicate, soft, delightful effervescence. Beautiful acidity bursts mid palate and is a perfect contrast to the round, rich mouthfeel. Finishes long with the perfect balance of ripe fruit and white flowers that carry through from nose to mouth.
