(8/31/2022) "Offering up aromas of crisp stone fruits, pear, buttered toast, musky peach and smoke, the 2018 Extra-Brut Premier Cru Clos de l'Abbaye was disgorged this year with two grams per liter dosage. Medium to full-bodied, pillowy and precise, with a nicely concentrated core of fruit, racy acids and a long, chalky finish, the 2018 is quite a fine-boned, elegant rendition of this bottling. As readers will remember, this cuvee derives from a walled 0.4-hectare plot of 60-year-old cordon-pruned vines (including some "muscate" selections of Chardonnay) just behind the winery in Vertus, and only the first and second "serres" of the press are used. Drink Date: 2023 - 2040."
