A smoky base note mingles with fresh springtime aromas in this firm, finely textured version, featuring flavors of star fruit, green plum, pickled ginger and raw almond. Disgorged February 2011. Drink now through 2016.

Lemon peel, grapefruit, white flowers and almonds are all nicely delineated in Doquet's NV Blanc de Blancs Premier
Cru. Bright and focused throughout, the Premier Cru impresses for its nuance, polish and crystalline personality. This is all subtlety and grace. The current release is based on the 2007 vintage, with reserve wines from 2006 (18%) and 2005 (14%). Disgorged February 7, 2014. Dosage is 7 grams per liter.
