Vibrant, Complex, Unexpected

EXTRA BRUT

The generous 1990 harvest was of an extraordinary quality. Although a cool spring brought on heavy frosts, an uncommonly hot summer allowed for unparalleled maturation on the vines. This resulting 1990 vintage provides a depth of aromatic complexity that is both unexpected and rarely achieved in history.
