Tasting Notes
-
Light and focused Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs. Brilliant gold color indicative of its superb freshness. Very enticing nose; a classic. An open and accessible 2016. Citrus fruit notes with intense chalk, pure and zesty. Great tension on the palate, verticality, and electric freshness, fine bubbles, and very creamy and soft.
