NV H. Billiot Fils Champagne Grand Cru Tradition Brut - France, Champagne, Champagne Grand Cru (5/21/2024)
September 2022 disgorgement, this was accompanied by a classy mixture of potato chips and pretzels. Gotta love salty snacks with Champagne. Overall palate feel was quite broad, but not at all sweet, despite the rather high (9 g/l) dosage. Overall it just felt full bodied, and so rather easy to drink. Plenty of ripe apple fruit on the palate, but still too early for more developed character. Given the dosage level I am inclined to age this one for a while to see where it goes.

It had me scratching my head for a minute, too. Very clever.

I saw the word on the label when I was opening it, and it immediately popped into my head.
