WINE REVIEW
A classic blend of 42% Chardonnay, 36% Pinot Noir and 22% Pinot Meunier, with a minimum of 36 months on the lees and a dosage of 8.5g/l.
First signs are impressive, as the wine has a beautiful golden colour in the glass.
On the nose we’ve got rich brioche and freshly baked bread notes, along with lots of citrus and a delightful nuttiness.
The palate starts clean and precise; citrus led with bracing acidity before the wine softening flavours of orchard fruit and red berry hints.
Very precise with wonderful texture and great length.
