Fragrant spice and lime blossom accents on the nose waft through flavors of ripe raspberry, white peach, blood orange peel and whole-grain toast as they ride the lacy mousse of this vibrant Champagne. This is well-structured and firmed by finely honed acidity, but there’s a sense of overall finesse and harmony. Long and expressive through the minerally finish of chalk and brine. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier.

Lemon zest, white pepper, chalk and lemon curd. Blood-orange flavor with zesty acidity, medium body, a tight mid-palate and slightly astringent finish, but overall balanced. 60% chardonnay, 35% pinot noir and 5% pinot meunier.

Pouring a straw yellow hue, the NV Champagne Sainte Anne Extra Brut is sourced from the family's vines in Merfy as well as in the Côte de Blancs in Avize and is a blend of 50% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir, and the rest Meunier, raised in barrels for nine months before bottling. It’s a non-vintage wine, but it’s entirely from the 2022 vintage. It offers a good deal of depth for an entry range wine, revealing savory notes of crushed stones, chamomile, orchard fruit, and musky floral perfume. It fills the palate with a creamy mousse that lifts it cleanly, and it has a delicate, silky texture and a haunting finish with notes of raw almond. It's going to be prime for enjoying now or over the coming 5-6 years.

The NV Brut Cuvée Ste.-Anne (base 2022) is terrific. I tasted it in the middle of the range after many of the single-vineyard Champagnes, but the wine did not suffer at all from its placement. If anything, this tasting reinforced my long-held view that the Ste.-Anne is one of the very finest grower Champagnes in its price range. This release, based on 2022, is brisk and energetic to its core. Citrus, white pepper, chalk and floral top notes are finely cut. This is an especially brisk edition of the Ste.-Anne. Chardonnay planted on chalk increasingly plays a leading role in this bottling. Superb.
