Chardonnay dominant and aged on lees for 12+ months, this is an excellent aperitif style combining white fleshed fruits and subtle toasty notes.
Winery notes (NV)
"Clay-limestone soil. Grapes are exclusively hand-picked at the optimal ripening. There is a first fermentation in vats under controlled temperature at 16°C to develop aromas. The second fermentation called ‘‘prise de mousse’’ takes place slowly in the bottle. Ageing on laths during 12 months minimum.
Yellow-gold colour with green tints, bubbles are tiny and long-lasting. The nose is fresh and vivid with a mix of white flowers, white fleshed fruits and citrus fruits aromas. Then, the wine develops notes of hazelnut and a subtle toasted. The attack is frank with a nice unctuousness. This wine is powerful, well-balanced with toasted notes on the finish."
5 Stars & 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2024 (NV)
"Beautifully styled and expressed, the bouquet shows nectarine, fig, lemon zest and oatmeal nuances, followed by a finely flowing palate that's creamy and soothing. Splendidly framed by refreshing acidity, making it comforting and fabulously drinkable."
