The NV Extra Brut Les Béguines LC15 is also showing very well, unwinding to reveal notes of mirabelle plums, yellow orchard fruit and white flowers. On the palate, it's full-bodied, deep and structured, with an abundance of chalky dry extract and impressive tension for the vintage. I suspect that this may prove fascinating with extended bottle age.
The NV (2015) Extra-Brut Les Beguines is laced with intense floral and mineral notes that at times show distinct Riesling-like inflections. In this release, Beguines is a bit less angular and severe than it often is at this stage in its life. Dried apricot, sage and chamomile are some of the many nuances that open up in this distinctive and highly expressive Champagne from Jérôme Prévost. The 2015 is medium in body, and yet my impression is that there is a good deal of concentration lurking in the background. Disgorged August 2017. Dosage is 2.8 grams per liter.
