Description Blend 100% Chardonnay, Côte des Blancs Grands Crus Technical Data • Average 6-years ageing on the lees • Dosage: 6g/litre • Alcohol Level: 15% ABV Tasting Notes Colour: Bright, light yellow, with a very fine and abundant bubble. Nose: Delicate, but already very expressive, the nose features a great aromatic freshness, with notes of lemon, white fruits, yellow plums and frangipani. Palate: Right from the start, it is light, yet voluptuous and vibrant, showing a silky texture with a touch of raciness. It features notes of citrus fruit and white flowers, culminating in a long finish, tightly wound on a pure line of the chalky minerality that Côte des Blancs is famous for. Built around Pinot Noir, it is structured and powerful, developing notes of chestnut honey and dried fruit. Food pairings Variety of flavoursome dishes including poultry and fish, or be served on its own to celebrate a special occasion.
