Dom. Fouet 2016 Pet' Nat' Blanc de Noir
We were frankly floored by this wine, whose innate finesse seems at odds with the whole notion of a “natural” sparkler that has never been filtered or disgorged. Perhaps all that such wines need is lots of time on the lees to find their natural balance and repose. This is a game-changer.
