Georges Laval Les Chênes Brut Nature 2013

Dried lemon rind, white flowers, and crushed chalk open this taut, stony Brut Nature from Laval's Les Chênes vineyard. The 2013 vintage's warmth lends an extra layer of fruit concentration, though it stays wound tight, there's real depth coiled beneath the surface. Give it time; this will unfold beautifully.
