Champagne Ulysse Collin Le Jardin d'Ulysse (Base. 15 Disg. Mar 2021)

“Offering up aromas of citrus oil, crisp green apple, white flowers, blanched almonds and nutmeg, it's full-bodied, chiseled and concentrated, with an ample core of fruit that's underpinned by a tangy spine of acidity and a seamless, complete profile. Unsurprisingly given its blend, it's very different in personality from the rest of the range, and readers will enjoy comparing and contrasting Les Jardin d'Ulysse with Collin's other bottlings. There's no track record yet, but this first release appears to have the structure to be one of the domaine's longer-lived wines.”
