Crystal bright and delicately pale, its golden gleams and jade green highlights give visual depth in the glass. Opening on fragrant floral notes of lime blossom, lily and acacia, its fresh citrus notes of bergamot and lemon zest are delicately enveloped by a swirl of marshmallow. Aromas of shelled almonds, but also fruits such as pear, cherry, apple and quince jelly are detectable after airing, accompanied by spicy coriander, star anise and a peppery toastiness. The champagne evolves in the mouth, full bodied, generous and fresh, with a lovely creamy attack. Its fine structure is underlined by superb lemon acidity nuanced with grapefruit. A soaring finish, carried by citrus notes, offers magnificent freshness and a deliciously discreet salinity.
