Traditionally, aged for three years and a blend of 40% Pinot Noir, 20% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Meunier. Pale gold in color with an abundance of delicate bubbles. Floral aromas along with a subtle predominance of white fruits: pear, apples, almonds, and hazelnuts. On the palate, a fresh opening, smooth pleasant and balanced. Great with Breton lobster and cream sauce, sole with morel mushrooms, and chicken borchettes with citronella.

Tasting notes

Just delicious, combining honey, baking bread, lemon verbena and hazelnut aromas and flavors on a medium-bodied, solid framework. Really fine texture and harmony, followed by a long finish. 2,800 CASES imported.
