88

Great rise in temperament, energy and quality here from the rich and generous 2021 vintage to raise the Crémant bar for De Chanceny and the Loire. A combination of high level phenolics and sweet botanical bitters gather where texture and elasticity exist in a sparkling vaccum. The most Champenoise style for a local sparkling wine and of truly fine mousse as well. Lime all over the finish. Last tasted July 2023. Score - 89. (Michael Godel, winealign.com)
