| Taste | The attack is delicious, full-bodied and bubbly, with red citrus fruit. The characteristic saltiness of the chalky terroir is evident on the palate. Notes of spices, liquorice, ginger, blond orange and mandarin make this cuvée original and edgy. |

Description
Brut Champagne, Blanc de Blancs 1er Cru, produced by Colin Champagne. 0.75 L bottle. A unique sensory experience that begins with mature and complex notes, a prelude to an explosion of aromas.

The attack is delicious, full-bodied, and sparkling, with red citrus notes. The characteristic salinity of the chalky terroir is evident on the palate. Notes of spice, licorice, ginger, blond orange, and mandarin make this cuvée original and sharp.
