Champagne Jeeper Champagne Brut Grand Cru (Sparkling white)

NV

Pale lemon. Aromas of brioche, creamy rich, spice and butter with hints of salted caramel, slightly bruised apples and waxy pears with hints of white nuts. Intensely creamy, ripe, rich fruit on the palate - subtle hints of quince, more spice, creamy and silky texture. Elegant acidity keeps everything in check, really fine and well-balanced. Fine elegant fizz balancing the fine elegant fruit. A beautifully integrated blend of apple compote, crisp Nashi pears, creamy freshness with honeyed floral notes and a whisper of shortbread biscuits. Lasting elegant buttery finish, lifted by subtle chalky minerality and lacy Sorrento lemon acidity. Delicate but powerful, pretty and sublimely charming. Long length and ultimately very drinkable although, surprisingly, after breathing it tightens up - becoming more direct, linear, crisp, mineral and firmer.
