The Extra Brut has a it more Pinot Noir than the Brut which might explain its greater resonance, depth and overall persistence next to the Brut bottling. In any event, this really is a great example of David Pehu's style. There's a ton of Pinot character here. The Extra-Brut is a bit gamy and quirky but is also intriguing.
