Champagne Charles Hubert Cuvee Prestige 2013 Grand Cru Brut, Ambonnay, France

A distinctive and very complex bouquet beginning with aromas of a developed autolysis suggesting scents of butter brioche and fresh oats. There’s a toasty complexity with a whisper of marmite then scents of strawberry and peach. On the palate - very elegant and fine with a sophisticated coarse-silk textured mousse, flavours of leesy autolysis and a fine salty quality sticks to the palate. Flavours of stone fruit, some strawberry and baked apple reappear adding depth. Balanced and weighty with a toasty and fruit centric quality. Drinking perfectly now and will continue to do so for two to three years. A beautiful wine, elegant and sophisticated. I am charmed.
