Pommery Grand Cru Royal Brut Champagne 2009

Lovely transparency of fruit here with pear, grapefruit, peach, honey, honeysuckle and lemon-meringue pie. Creamy and layered with very fine bubbles. Balanced and creamy, with a long and supple finish. 50% of chardonnay and 50% pinot noir. 7g/L dosage. Disgorged January 2022. Delicious already. Drink now or hold. Score – 94.
