Champagne Cattier 1er Cru Brut Blanc de Blancs NV

The producer's practice of aging its Champagnes for four years pays off in this Chardonnay-based wine. The mineral texture may have softened but it has been replaced by a balance between crisp apple flavors and touches of toastiness. Drink the wine now, or leave it until 2021 for even more bottle-aging flavors.
