A bright golden colour and fine, tantalizing bubbles. A sophisticated bouquet, subtle notes of pastry, lemon cake, intertwine with a fresher hint of grapefruit, a fragrant toasty hazelnut, beeswax. Wise wood ageing, and more than 60 months on the lees, enrich its character with a fine note of ripe quince, a distinctive feature of some great sparkling wines.
Well balanced, a creamy mousse and a refreshing acidity lead to a mineral, fruity, fragrant, lingering finish.
