Champagne Paul Bara 2015 Comtesse Marie de France Brut 750ml

The 2015 Brut Comtesse Marie de France is a terrific effort, especially for the year.  Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers and baked apple tart all show the complexity of a wine that spent nine years on its lees.  Soft resonant contours give the 2015 tons of allure.  This mid-weight Champagne is a total delight.  Dosage is 3 grams per liter.  Disgorged: March 2025.
