This 2016 is only the second edition of this magical but unfortunately rare bottling. This is a complex and meticulous blend of all the house's cuvées in the most difficult years. It is a mix of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir, 100% vinified in used Leflaive barrels. Its fine bubbles release an appealing nose featuring aromas of sweet-ripe citrus fruits, peach and red berries backed with notes of roasted nuts and some baked apple. A very complex palate in the mouth showing citrus spice and profound minerality with a lot of tension as well as great length and grace.
