The 2008 Brut Blanc de Blancs Cuvée Fleuron 1er Cru, from the [date] disgorgement shows quite a bit more power and overall gravitas than the later disgorgement. Hints of smoke, slate and dried pear add shades of nuance. Time on cork has really helped the Fleuron come together to a greater extent than it was in the past. Disgorged: May 2016.
