"The 2017 Champagne Premier Cru Cumières Blanc de Blancs Volupte Extra Brut pours a bright straw/yellow color and reveals notes of mocha, ripe lemon balm, smoky wet stones, white peach, and raw hazelnut. It has a slight reduction, but it™s not pronounced. Medium-bodied, it has a silky texture and clean, bright acidity. Drink 2025-2040. Disgorged in November 2024 with 2 grams per liter dosage."

"An overt and spicy wine full of toasty aromas with an exquisite mix of green apples and lemons. A bit of lanolin. Medium-sized bubbles with long chewy acidity and polished phenolics. Drink now."

"Disgorged in January 2022 with a mere one gram per liter dosage, the 2015 Brut Blanc de Blancs Volupté offers up aromas of white flowers, hazelnuts, citrus zest and fresh pastry. Medium to full-bodied, pillowy and chiseled, with racy acids and a chalky, mordant finish, it didn't see malolactic fermentation."

"The 2014 Brut Blanc de Blancs Volupté shows how appealing this vintage is. Bright and linear in construction, the 2014 now shows the slight notes of complexity that have developed since disgorgement in October 2021. Ripe pear, apricot, white flowers, tangerine and chamomile all take shape nicely in this effortless, resonant Chardonnay. This was raised in 50% oak and 50% enamel tanks and saw a dosage of 2 grams per liter."
