(Wine Advocate Score 95 on vintage 2016) Disgorged in February 2020 with 0.8 grams per liter dosage, Renoir's 2016 Extra-Brut Blanc de Noirs Grand Cru Les Epinettes wafts from the glass with aromas of mandarin orange, white flowers, blackcurrant, anise and crisp yellow orchard fruit, complemented by subtle hints of white flowers and fresh pastry. Full-bodied, fleshy and seamless, with racy acids, fine depth at the core and a long, saline finish, this has turned out beautifully.
