Dense and zesty, Very confident build and a good combination of fruit, autolysis and freshness. Good balance and a wine that it ready to savour. My only reproach is that it doesn't really linger on the palate.

50% Chardonnay, 45% Pinot Noir, 5% Pinot Meunier. Rich, nuanced and dense on the nose. Tasting this alongside Mo?t 2006, it is clear that this is much more ambitious. Good balance and lots of fresh acidity but a savoury undertow. Attractively dry finish. Not the tightest texture and surprisingly evolved for a 2006 but useful for drinking now.
