Duval-Leroy Precious Parcel Clos des Bouveries Extra Brut 1er Cru Champagne 2006

Light, bready aromas with ripe yellow peaches, lemons and light, white peaches. Some floral and baking spice notes, too. There’s a strong core of powerful citrus fruit and a wave of baking spices building at the finish. Acidity, power, purity and complexity are all here! A monopole of chardonnay in Vertus. Drink now or hold. Score – 93. (jamessuckling.com, Sept. 5, 2018)
