Tasting note
Wonderful effervescence with intensive fine bubbles and foam – very long-lasting.  The bouquet exudes fine brioche notes along with aromas of nut crescent, apple peel and grape seed. On the palate dances the finest mousseux – very elegant and focused – accompanied by tones of lemon sorbet, pear and quince. Powerful fruit and crisp acidity expression. Wonderfully dry and structured with a refreshing finish; the noble length reflects gorgeous salinity. A fabulous sparkling wine that can stand with the great champagnes! (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)
