Reserve wines are used for up to 40% of the blend, an exceptional sign of quality and regularity over time. Pale golden highlights, combined with very fine bubbles that carry an abundant, persistent foam.
Tasting Notes
- Taste: Roundness and generosity accompany a lovely verticality. Crisp nectarine, notes of honey, saffron and pepper nicely set off by lovely bitters on the finish. Also, subtle notes of citrus and cream.
- Aroma: White flesh fruit such as pears and nectarines, ethereal touches of peony expressed by the Pinot Noir. On the second nose: a spicier range, complexity with aromas of dried apricots and almonds
- Finish: Lovely bitters on the finish, long and toasty.
- Food Match: Seafood, salads, light appetisers.
