"A bright golden color, the 2016 Champagne 1er Cru Vertus Blanc De Blancs Mont Ferres Extra Brut is ripe on the nose, with a sunny feel, offering notes of lemon curd, spice, chamomile, and a savory seaweed element. Medium-bodied, it has broader shoulders on the palate, with a chalky, pithy texture, an angular, fully dry feel, and a persistent, savory finish. It's going to show its best over the coming 8-10 years. Disgorged July 2023."
