Region: Champagne, France 
Blend: 100% Chardonnay 
Year: 2018  

Vinous, 97 Points 

"The 2018 La Haute Lemblé is powerful, deep and resonant, maybe a bit more so than normal. The interplay of richness and explosive vertical enerav is breathtakina. Time in the glass brinas out captivating scents of white flowers, lemon confit, mint and orchard fruit, with expressive tropical accents that add complexity. The 2018 is very, very closed today but it does anner to be awite rich and likely to ace into an exotic Champaane very much marked but the ripeness of the vintade. It's another showstopper from Cédric Bouchard. Disgorged: 2022."
