Chandon Blanc de Blancs
Chandon
A class act. Clean, crackly and creamy, with a fragrant floral perfume of lemon grass and white peach over bakery-like yeasty undertones, it's long, round and generous but ever so tightly focused. Long, smooth and stylish, with a lingering core of stonefruit and citrus, it becomes nutty and savoury towards its clean finish of refreshing acidity. (Yarra Valley, Strathbogie, King Valley, 18.5/94, drink 2005-2008+) Jeremy Oliver, OnWine
