The opening bouquet is complex and luminous, a mingling of white flowers, citrus and stone fruit. The overall effect is enhanced by the freshness of aniseed and crushed mint. The final aromas offered by the wine are starting to show spicy, woody and roasted notes.
This is, simply put, a Champagne lover’s dream, with lemon zest and greengage on the nose and a toasted-hazelnut quality underneath. Hints of spiced orange peel come through with a little aeration, as well as flavours of crunchy green apple and acacia that bounce off the tongue, with a remarkably fine effervesce throughout.
