Details
Fresh green fruit with hints of citrus supported by discreet almond biscotti and broiche typical to classic bottle fermented sparkling wine styles. Extended lees contact gives a full and creamy mouthfeel with elegant minerality, good balance and a seamless finish.
Enjoyed chilled at any time of the day with good friends and juicy strawberries, or with freshly sucked oysters and good quality smoked salmon. Also delicious with duck liver paté and creamy chicken dishes.
