A. Margaine Extra Brut Champagne

Tasting Notes

Made from 100% Chardonnay, the NV Champagne Extra Brut is 80% from the 2018 vintage and the remainder from the 2017, 30% of which was raised in oak barrels. It is a pretty and fresh approach, with key lime, almond croissant, and ripe pear fruit. This translates well to the palate, though it finishes with more pithy citrus and a bit of granular feel that seems to temper its otherwise refreshing appeal. Drink 2023-2033.
