Doyard Cuvee Vendemiaire Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru Brut, Champagne, France NV

Rich and well-spiced, this creamy Champagne is defined by firm acidity and a chalky undertow. Shows a range of flavors, with notes of baked melon, toasted hazelnut, golden apple and lemon preserves accented by a skein of warm baking spices and graphite that winds through and lingers on the finish.
