Tasting notes
The 2021 Blanc de Blancs Keefer Ranch shows attractive richness and depth in its mid-weight, vibrant build. Layers of lemon peel, chalk, pastry and toasted spice flesh out nicely with air, braced by a lively mousse that tingles on the tongue. Dosage of 2 grams per liter and two years en tirage lends just the right amount of roundness and freshness. Disgorged: August 2024.

Fruit-driven aromas of lemon pith, grapefruit rind, brioche and flint. The palate is textural, with a medium-bodied mouthfeel and finely beaded mousse, giving notes of orange blossoms, lime curd and pastry. Fresh and pure, with an underlying power an complexity. Drink or hold.
