Tasting Notes
This 100% Chardonnay Champagne is a model of freshness and vivacity, aged for a generous 36 months on the lees. It presents a pale gold hue with brilliant reflections. The nose is immediately engaging, fresh and lively, highlighted by elegant notes of white flowers and invigorating citrus. On the palate, expect intense freshness, vivacity, and a pronounced, characteristic minerality. These qualities are accompanied by subtle aromas of citrus and fresh fruit, leading to a long, clean finish that defines top-tier Blanc de Blancs.
