The 2019 Extra Brut Présence is deep, fleshy and super-expressive. A blend of Pinot Blanc and Chardonnay, the Présence is very refined, with lingering aromas of lemon confit, marzipan and white flowers. This shows great depth along with the finesse that is increasingly a signature here. Bottled with no dosage. Disgorged: December, 2022
