Larmandier-Bernier : Les Chemins d'Avize Grand Cru Extra Brut 2010

Wine Advocate-Parker :
The brilliant, white golden-colored 2010 Les Chemnins d'Avize Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut offers a highly complex, lovely intense and refreshing bouquet of white fruit flavors mingled with nuts, brioche, chalk and iodine flavors. Full-bodied and generously creamy-textured, this is a highly elegant and perfectly balanced Blanc de Blancs that is rather rich than ascetic (in case you fear the Extra-Brut), and reveals a persistent mineral structure and refreshing purity in the finish. Although the Chemins is still bloody young, it drinks wonderfully today, but can (or should) age for several years to gain even more delicacy and complexity.
