““Disgorged in March 2019 with 5.5 grams per liter dosage, the latest release of Jeaunaux-Robin's NV Extra Brut Le Talus de Saint Prix is showing well, revealing a delicate bouquet of citrus zest, crisp yellow apple, freshly baked bread, dried white flowers and wet stones. Medium to full-bodied, crisp and tensile, it's ripe but racy, with a tightly wound core, brisk acids and a pinpoint mousse, concluding with a precise, mineral finish. It's a blend of 60% Pinot Meunier, 20% Pinot Noir and 10% Chardonnay.”

“With the high percentage of Pinot Meunier typical of the producer, this Champagne is already ripe and smooth. The acidity and dry edge that come from its low dosage are finely integrated, framing its ripe white and citrus fruit.”
