Medium straw with aggressive fine, persistent streams of bead. High quality nose of toasted brioche, redcurrants, citrus and figs with just a hint of vegemite. Fresh citrussy palate exhibiting a strong undertone of redcurrant, plenty of weight, creamy mouthfeel before a blast of exuberant crisp, cleansing acidity and excellent carry. A finely honed and particularly well balanced Champagne of some class. 92 points. Drink now-2013+
