EYE :
The deep robe has a dense and satin appearance. Its colour is yellow straw with hints of golden yellow. It is animated by fine and light bubbles fueling a persistent neck. The visual sensation forecasts a full-bodied, complemented wine with plenty of personality.

NOSE :
Soft spices such as saffron, cumin, curry, liquorice blend with smells of butter, roasted figs and black tea come out on the nose at first. The ventilation reveals a fragance of honeysuckle and notes of sweet almonds, apple, plum, candied pear, almond paste, dry apricot, toffee and cocoa.

MOUTH :
The palate is soft and fresh with a creamy and melted effervescence. It develops a fruity substance with developing aromas backed up by the lemony and apricot acidity.
The mid-palate is well-balanced and harmonious, with an aromatic and  tactile abondance of a high standard and a strong gastronomic gluttony.The Champagne expresses patina with a mellow and subtle sensation, very seductive. You will experience a final melting taste. It reappears in the palate with a salty hint and a dry, deep and lengthy substance suggesting plenty of fullness and harmony.
