Tasting

Blanc de Blancs

Aspect

The pale yellow with green highlights color offers delicate and agile bubbles. The ring of foam is elegant suggesting freshness, youth and springtime.

Nose

The first nose confirms this sensation : citrus aromas like lemon from Menton, bergamot orange and floral notes like mimosa.
Aeration helps, sponge fingers appears. Then it’s time for mandarin, lily of the valley, honeysuckle, menthol, in a dance of elegants and fresh perfumes. We dip into the fragances of a rich and complex springtime.

Mouth

On the palate, the wine is fresh, dynamic and firm. The bubbles are perfectly incorparated into the wine leaving a beautiful freshness take the beat. It gives a pureness sensation. The dosage is just guessed more than detected. The whole delivers a creamy texture with an elegant chalky minerality.
The finish is very long (9 to 10 seconds) and well balanced. Almond milk and lime fragances admirably goes with the minerality and salinity in a very distinguished sensation. It ends on a delicate hint of licorice and chalk.

This cuvée deserve to be tasted in beautiful curved flutes in a temperature around 10°C. At the table, pair it with smooth textures and seafood meals. Soles, turbot fish, brill, haddock, Saint- Jacques, langoustines, caviar Beluga will be perfect.
