J. Lassalle Special Club Brut
There is an inherent subtlety and restraint here, but at the same time glorious complexity, without lacking anything in concentration or presence. Such is its sophistication and harmony that nothing leaps out of the glass. Instead, a gentle, caressing presence of white peach and preserved lemon, with complex nuances of nutmeg, cinnamon, toast, even anise. A fine, creamy bead, beautifully integrated acidity, soft, underlying minerality and an aftertaste of unrelenting endurance complete an intricately assembled package.
