Benjamin Bridge Brut Méthode Classique 2011
Gaspereau Valley, Nova Scotia, CanadaThis newly released, 100 percent chardonnay Brut spent four years on the lees before release, and is still extremely tight, fresh and precise. Tasting beauty now, this has a long life ahead. Gripped by a pithy tightness, and centered with a comfortably slender palate, this is crystalline orange and lemon, pear skin and oil, and bitter lemon thistle herbaceousness throughout to a shimmering vibrato on the finish. Serious stuff. 11.5%, TA 10.7. pH 3.01.Tasted: 22 February 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $50.00 | 750ml | LCBO |
