2015 Champagne Ulysse Collin, Les Pierrières, Blanc de Blancs, Extra Brut

Exceptionally rich nose. But then on the palate it's very firm and refreshing with masses to titillate both brain and palate. Clean, fresh finish – very appetising yet with many layers. Some hazelnut aroma and a definite relationship with white burgundy.

The length and finesse of the finish is quite remarkable. This is a very fine wine indeed that happens to have bubbles. Extremely precise winemaking. So clean and energetic.
