Disgorged in October 2019 with 2.5 grams per liter dosage, the 2014 Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru Les Nogers is showing beautifully, offering up an expressive bouquet of fresh peach, ripe lemons, golden orchard fruit and hazelnuts. Full-bodied, rich and fleshy, it's vinous and enveloping, with a concentrated core of ripe fruit, elegantly muscular structure and a fine, pinpoint mousse. Long and expansive, this derives from 50-year-old vines from a northeast-exposed lieu-dit in Cuis, characterized by chalky soils with pockets of sand. It's another brilliant Champagne from Adrien Dhondt.
