Color: A pale and sparkling yellow robe, suggestive of vivacity.
Tasting Nose: The Grand Brut is delicate, elegant and balanced. The striking freshness and vivacity of the floral and fruity fragrances (yellow fruits and fresh fruits) take root, before giving way to subtle notes of vanilla and butter, lending the wine a fruity and consistent character.
Palate: The notes of cherry plum, lemon and bergamot orange emerge first, then make way for the flowers of fruit trees, such as lime and honeysuckle. These are followed by notes of butter, madeleine cakes and vanilla sugar. Lingering notes of grapefruit, white peaches, green pears, apple trees and green hazelnuts round off the taste. Ampleness and vivacity balance out in the mouth, developing into a flavor of round and vinous elegance. Fresh, balanced champagne with a long finish.
Pairing Tips: Poultry Dishes, Grapefruits and Young Leeks. Its flavor is best revealed between 7° and 9°C.
