France, Champagne | |
APPELLATION: | Champagne AOC |
GRAPES: | 92% Pinot Noir, 4% Chardonnay, 4% Pinot Meunier |
APPEARANCE: | Pale gold colour intensity, draped with a bright luminosity with golden yellow tinges. A persistent and abundant finesse of bubbles evolving in a disciplined and energetic way |
AROMA: | A noble and racy expression of a chiselled complexity towards floral notes, orchard fruits and slightly roasted dried fruits (carnation, Williams pear and just roasted hazelnuts). A natural and vibrant sparkle evolving towards scents of citrus zest (lemon caviar and kalamansi) |
PALATE: | An ample and dense tension where the texture slowly reveals itself under a controlled and exhilarating acidity. The mid-palate offers a distinguished balance, vinous, almost salty, under the gustatory impact of careful maturing (vine shoots and blond tobacco) |
FOOD PAIRING: | This exceptional cuvée will enchant your taste buds when paired with fine vegetable ravioli, creamy celery with Cévennes chestnuts |
SERVICE TEMPERATURE: | 11-12 °C |
