The 2011 Blanc de Noirs Côte de Béchalin is terrific, mingling notes of citrus zest and orange oil with red apple, white flowers and pastry cream. On the palate, it's full-bodied and textural but incisive, with excellent concentration, lively acids and a characteristically delicate mousse, concluding with a long and precise finish. Disgorged in April 2018, this derives from a southwest-facing lieu-dit with clay-limestone soils. Since it spends six years sur lattes, it's always vintage dated.
