"Disgorged in December 2025 with a dosage of three grams per liter, the 2021 Blanc de Noirs Bouzy Grand Cru opens in the glass with aromas of orange oil, kumquat and rooibos mingled with apricot and beeswax. Medium- to full-bodied, vinous and harmonious, it is underpinned by racy acids, with good depth at the core and a long, saline finish. It is a considerable success in the context of this challenging Champagne vintage, owing in no small part to the predominantly south-facing slopes, which enabled a level of ripeness that so many wines never fully attained in 2021."
