The 2015 Champagne Grand Cru Special Club Chouilly Brut is savory in its attack, with tarragon and fresh herbs, lime zest, and saline earth. With its ripeness and rounded feel, it is approachable now. Drink 2022-2034.

James Suckling, August 2022 (Vintage 2015)

Seaweed and oyster shell with some stone and dried apple on the nose. Medium to full body with a creamy texture, showing apple skin and lemon rind to the cooked-apple and lemon undertones. Intense and slightly decadent. Dosage 4g/L. Disgorged in April 2021. Drink now.
