Color and Bubbles: A brilliant straw-gold colour with luminous golden reflections. Fine, persistent bubbles rise in elegant streams, forming a delicate and long-lasting mousse.
Aroma: The nose is expressive and generous, revealing aromas of ripe red berries, apricot and yellow stone fruits, intertwined with acacia blossom, citrus zest and a touch of honey. Subtle brioche notes add depth and elegance.
Palate: Rich and silky on the palate, this Grand Cru Demi-Sec offers flavours of ripe orchard fruits, candied citrus and honey, balanced by vibrant freshness and refined minerality. The creamy mousse enhances the wine’s generous texture, leading to a long, harmonious finish with remarkable finesse.
It pairs beautifully with foie gras, smoked salmon, sushi and sashimi, mildly spiced Asian cuisine, creamy cheeses, and fruit-based desserts. It is also an excellent match for dark chocolate and chocolate desserts, where its freshness keeps the pairing elegant rather than heavy.
