Tasting notes
The new release of the NV Brut Premier Cru Alexandre is based on the 2016 vintage, and it was disgorged in October 2019 with seven grams per liter dosage. Exhibiting aromas of ripe citrus, crisp yellow pear and fresh bread, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and precise, with tangy acids, a youthfully frothy mousse and a chalky finish. It will unwind further with another six months on cork.

Aromas and flavors of oyster shell and minerals with sliced apples and lemons. Tangy and very acidic with an energetic finish that gives an impression of steely dryness. A little extreme. Drink now.
Ambonnay. Some bold evolution on the nose. Quite flamboyant. Lots of lemoniness and a little bit of astringency. Fades just a little fast. (JR)
