Tasting Notes
Appearance: Bright golden hue with green reflections, accompanied by fine, persistent bubbles that underscore its elegance and vitality.
Nose: Complex and layered, with fresh citrus notes of lemon zest and lime, intertwined with floral aromas of white blossom and acacia. Subtle chalky and flinty minerality evoke the chalky soils of Cramant, complemented by delicate hints of almond and freshly baked brioche.
Palate: Crisp and vibrant on entry, with a creamy, well-rounded texture. Citrus and stone fruit flavors unfold harmoniously, supported by an intense minerality that lends depth and precision. The finish is long and pure, with a touch of salinity and a refreshing note of citrus zest, enhancing its structured elegance.
