Tasting and appreciation

Its magnificent light yellow robe is revealed by a creamy foam and fine bubbles. Aromas of orchard fruit, green hazelnut and citrus fruit unveil a lively and fresh bouquet. Peach and grapefruit complete the freshness of this delicate nose. This champagne is riche, complex, balanced and fine at the same time with a fresh and smooth attack on notes of buttery brioche and ripe apricot. A beautiful length to finish, of mango and lime, allow you to appreciate the minerality of this 100% Chardonnay.
