The 2007 Extra-Brut Vintage Celebris is a great example of the house style

This also flirts with the exotic but remains pure and fresh and I like the fine layering of the airy aromas of acacia blossom

but they are now all there front and center

There is good volume and richness to the solidly well-concentrated and appealingly textured medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent depth and length on the quite firmly structured finish where a touch of dryness appears that I suspect is attributable to the recent bottling rather than under ripe tannins

This is also lovely though it too needs to add depth

A slightly riper and more deeply pitched nose speaks of cassis, plum, earth and minerals that also characterize the equally well detailed and wonderfully pure flavors that possess excellent richness and drive on the velvety finish. Excellent juice with very fine mediumterm potential. 92 2016+
