Jean Vesselle 2011 Millesime Brut Champagne

This is sourced entirely from the Grand Cru village of Bouzy, and is made up of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay. Though the 2011 vintage was a challenge throughout Champagne, the 10 years on its lees have worked wonders for this bottling. The now shows ample bake shop character with aromas of citrus, toast, brioche, baked apples and baking spices. The palate is just shy of moderate in weight with toasted brioche, apple and a bit of lemon preserves. D&M Tasting Notes
