2015 Alfred Gratien Blanc de Blancs

A bright yellow-straw colored, the pillowy and ripe 2015 Champagne Millésime Blanc De Blancs Brut is rounded and generous with notes of ripe pear, fresh melon, and candied citrus. Approachable and open on the palate, it’s full-bodied and has a juicy and open feel throughout the mid-palate, with a touch of the bitter and savory pithiness that this vintage tends to hold on the finish. It’s in a great spot for drinking now or over the next 6-8 years.
