Review

One of Champagne's best value non-vintage bottlings, Nicolas Feuillatte Brut blends Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier for a balanced, crowd-pleasing style. Expect aromas of brioche, citrus, green apple, pear, and toasted almonds, followed by flavors of lemon curd, stone fruit, pastry, and subtle chalky minerality. The mousse is fine and creamy, with bright acidity and a clean, refreshing finish.
