Tasting notes:
Eye: slightly darker in colour, which is due to the use of 65% Pinot Noir.
Nose: first clear citrus and apple tones, somewhat yeasty.
Palate: clear intensity and fruitiness, but also some softer tones of honey and brioche; beautifully balanced and elegant, fresh with rounded acids and soft bubble.
Food pairing:
This fine, fruity Champagne is an excellent apéritif all by itself but also combines very well indeed with white meats, pork meat, rich fish, shellfish and light cheese.
