Blue Mountain Blanc de Blancs R.D. Méthode Traditionelle 2010
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis has become my Blue Mountain favourite and it begins with finesse and styling of this eminently drinkable 12.5 percent fizz. Not sure why we are just seeing this wine this fall, but no matter, it's delicious all the same. It was recently disgorged (RD) in August 2016 and then spent another year in bottle before release. Our sample has almost 30 months under its belt in the bottle, post its disgorgement. I love the freshness of the subtle, leesy, autolytic notes of extended lees ageing on the nose, along with bits of toast, salt and seawater before the citrus, red apple nervous fruit fill your palate and linger for ever on the palate. So pure. This is special. Serve with delicately prepared dishes.Tasted: 29 October 2018Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $39.90 | 750ml | winery direct, private retail, restaurants |
