Still tightly wound after its disgorgement in April 2021, the 2012 Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Vieille Vigne du Levant offers up an inviting bouquet of pear, peach, orange zest, freshly baked bread and pastry cream. Full-bodied, rich and concentrated, it's an elegantly muscular, layered wine, with lively acids and a pinpoint mousse, concluding with a resonant finish. Despite its flesh and power, it's still tightly wound, so at least a few years' patience is recommended.

A very rich, powerful and creamy Blanc de Blancs champagne with a slew of candied-orange and caramelized-grapefruit aromas, plus notes of sushi ginger and saffron. Gains in freshness after a bit of aeration in the glass, adding to its considerable appeal. Bone-dry but expansive finish that’s super-harmonious for this category.
