Youthful and racy, with a bracing structure that sets the pace for its citrus, apple and ginger notes. Still tight, with acidity coming to the fore on the finish. Starts better than it finishes. Drink now through 2015.

If you want purity of fruit, this is the wine for you. With its relatively low dosage, there is no compromise with the rich, but elegant fruit, very much following the Pommery style. At this stage, the wine is very young, leaving it somewhat unbalanced. But at the end of another 5 years, this will be a great wine. At this stage, decant before serving.
