Forget-Brimont 2009 Vintage Premier Cru Brut
Luminous golden colour. Fine discrete bubbles, superb cordon. Complex nose with aromas of stewed fruit and mushrooms. Initial impression of Pinot Noir with balance provided by Chardonnay. Flavours of brioche and toasted bread with an undercurrent of dried fruits (hazelnuts, almonds). A mature round wine with a silky finish combining hints of candied fruit and vanilla.
