A stellar sparkling year makes up this Traditional blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Light yellow, with delicate but persistent bubbles at first glance. Rich notes of lemon tart, fresh baguette, and a slight chalkiness on the nose. The autolytic characteristics come from the four years of maturation on the lees. The palate is fresh with acidity, with a subtle 8g/L residual sugar balancing it out. Flavours match the nose with toasted biscuity notes and fresh lemon juice, moving towards the realm of clementine. The Pinot Noir really shows in the texture of this wine, adding body, but kept in line with the effervescence and chardonnay acid backbone.
Try with oysters, smoked salmon crostini, duck liver mousse, soft cheeses or any holiday party!
