93/100 Wine Spectator
A luminous blond color with silvery highlights, announcing a wine dominated by Pinot Noir, fully matured and animated by a fine effervescence.Regular, delicate bubbles form a lively, elegant cordon on the surface.
The olfactory attack is distinguished by its intensity, revealing a generous bouquet of pastries, frangipane and honeysuckle, enhanced by subtle notes of peppermint.On aeration, aromas of pear and peach in syrup reinforce the aromatic richness of this Champagne.
The balance between richness and tension is expressed by a complex structure. The freshness of citrus fruit blends harmoniously with tertiary aromas of pastry, offering a long, flavorful finish.
At the table, this Champagne goes perfectly with delicate dishes such as poached white meats, raw fish with sauce, or hard cheeses.
