Tasting Notes
The robe is a lovely pale gold with soft green glints and dynamic effervescence forming a beautiful cord of fine bubbles. The bouquet is delicate and elegant, with ripe citrus, fresh fruit (notably white peaches), small red fruits, and marked vinosity. The palate is wonderfully lively and fresh. It is extremely well-balanced, harmonious, and full-bodied with red fruits in the bouquet. Notes of citrus come back for the finish and then slowly fade.
Pairing Recommendation
Perfect with fatty fish (salmon), sushi, and blue cheeses such as Roquefort or Gorgonzola. Service Temperature: 8°C - 10°C
