Bailly-Lapierre 2011 Egarade (Crémant de Bourgogne)

Country: France / Burgundy
Variety: Champagne Blend
Winery: Bailly-Lapierre / Egarade

Already showing some toasty maturity, this blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir is delicate, yeasty and rounded. Coming from northern Burgundy, it has a cool climate feel, textured with orange zest and the crispest acidity. It is ready to drink, although another few years in bottle will improve it even more.
