Description
“This must be one of the most beguiling and refined 2018s from the Côte des Blancs, managing to retain a tensile, nuanced and detailed complexity in a year that can sometimes be a bit simple. From some of the estate’s chalkiest, shallowest soils, Minéral impresses by setting white peach, bitter almond and dried flowers in a lithe, persistent frame full of leapfrogging details of slate, umami savour and apricot kernel richness, dancing over a long, detailed finish. Terrific.” - 95 points, Tom Hewson, Decanter
“This year 2018 fits the Minéral cuvée like a glove. A comfortable and rich vintage, which meets the straightness, verticality and tension of this cuvée, for a wine that is both energetic and textured.”
