An exceptionally fine cuvée – the culmination of a blend of 60% Chardonnay, and 40% Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Exuding aromas of pear and nuts, complemented by hints of white flowers and faint toasty notes, it opens with a strong, assertive energy – bold, yet contained.
This elegant wine, crafted with a high proportion of exceptional reserve wines, shines pale gold with fine bubbles. The nose offers fresh Chardonnay notes of pear and nectarine, layered with delicate peony from Pinot Noir and evolving into complex hints of dried apricot and almonds. On the palate, it balances roundness and verticality, revealing crisp nectarine, honey, saffron, and pepper, all lifted by a refined bitter edge on the finish.
