Koyama Brut Traditonal NV *NEW*

A delicious bone-dry pinot noir-dominant blend made in tiny quantities by Takahiro Koyama, in which rich notes of gingerbread and toasted breadcrust are counterpoised by a powerful line of lemony acidity. The nose suggests almond and hazelnut praline, with citrus and struck flint undertones. Two years of lees ageing give the palate weight, which is balanced by the crisp, bone-dry structure of this zero-dosage release.

Produced in minuscule quantities, and very expensively, Koyama’s methode releases are true gems and showcase thoughtful, delicate winemaking skill.
