Mousse Fils 'Special Club' Les Fortes de Terres Brut, Champagne, France 2018 Jean-Louis typical bouquet with fruity notes

typical bouquet with fruity notes of strawberries and roses

but the crisp acidity structure keeps it on track on the very clean and subtly mineral finish

as if you were chewing on Granny Smith peel

with a filtered-through-granite minerality—as well-suited to apéritifs as an al fresco summer feast

This cuvée blends Pinot Noir from lieux-dits in and around the Irancy appellation
