There is some school of thought that the vintage is very much like 1996. Clotilde Chauvet is wrapped with the Champagne and believes it is indeed one of her finest. It has an inviting and expressive nose of fresh lemons, flowers, bread and chalk. It is creamy of texture and direct of flavour. Balance is exquisite and it finishes with outstanding length. It is delicious now but with the propensity to age. It is one of the great vintage Champagne buys. JH 2020
