A pale lemon color in the glass with a plethora of fine, tiny bubbles. Floral aromatics attack on the nose with white flowers and very subtle gardenias. The citrusy notes come in waves with fresh peeled limes and lemons. Crisp apples and toasted nuts abound. The traditional bread notes come later but are simply fantastic.
Cream all over this. A fine mousse in the mouth and silky on the tongue. Crisp fruit and outstanding balance at this price point. More acid than expected but nice structure going on here. This is such a clean and bright champagne. It doesn’t let you see any flaws, they’re all covered up.
The brioche bread really stands out on the palate along with some smoke and pineapple. More citrus fruit comes to play in the form of quince fruit and peaches. Long, effervescent finish with more baked bread and nuts. Perfect for so many occasions, this is a fun one.
