The true expression of the House style.
Elegant, fresh, light, well-balanced with good length.
The perfect celebration champagne!

AGED: Average of 3 years.
TASTING NOTES: A color of pale yellow gold, intense with reflected tints of rich red-gold. Delicate mouse, lively with small bubbles. On the nose the aromas are fine, delicate and complex with notes of apple and pear suggesting the fruity to come on the palate which has plenty of fresh attack, lots of life, and is yet supple, round and most refreshing on the finish.
THE OCCASION: This champagne has a very open, easy & welcoming style; floral and fruity, most accessible to both experts and occasional drinkers. It is the perfect aperitif with a lovely balance between freshness and body; truly a champagne that can be consumed all through the day!
