Idee Fixe Premier Brut 2024

100% Chardonnay. 

Flint and gun-smoke aromas lead into fresh oyster shell, sea spray and delicate orange blossom. Layers of freshly cut yellow plum and vibrant citrus are complemented by subtle notes of baked pastry, brioche and almond cake from extended time on lees. A fine, sea foam mousse carries flavours of zesty citrus and crunchy orchard fruits across a textured palate, balanced by a taut acid line and carefully judged dosage. The finish is long, savoury and moreish, with lingering saline minerality, chalk-like tension and coastal freshness. Winery's notes.
