Organoleptic characteristics

The robe, golden yellow, diffuses a soft and brilliant light, lively, joyful.

The nose is immediately perceived as greedy and fresh: some lively citrus notes (zest

orange and lemon), very ripe white (pear) and yellow (peach) fruits leave

guess deeper suave accents, reflecting a robust constitution and identity.

The freshness and generosity of the wine cohabit, giving it strength and presence.

The palate reveals sweet spicy notes of vanilla and floral (tuberose) associated

a few touches of white pepper rub shoulders with a beautiful and intense minerality. The sparkle of wine

is total with an unforgettable taste trail. The two “white and black” grape varieties are

harmony, combining an elegant and balanced texture with a beautiful aromatic persistence.

Gastronomic alliances

A vintage champagne offering a form of “corpulence” which positions it in

accompaniment to delicate, natural and tasty dishes such as tails of

lobster, a grilled John Dory, a sea bass… However, its extreme delicacy

place it without hesitation and par excellence as an aperitif in a high class setting.

A racy, peaceful champagne.

Available in bottle.
