| Perfume | The nose is fresh and delicate with aromas of exotic fruits (guava, lychee) and small red fruits (raspberry, cherry, wild strawberry). Notes of rose and pomegranate complete the wine's complex and intense aromatic profile. |
| Taste | On the palate, the opening is distinct and full, lulled by a sweet effervescence. The aromas of freshly picked berries are fully expressed. The balance combines a delicious freshness and a voluptuous body, expressed by an elegant refreshing touch of mint and pink grapefruit. |
| Production method | 45% Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims regions, 55% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and the Vallée de la Marne, of which 18-19% vinified in red. Finally, a portion of 20 to 25% reserve wines from the two previous vintages. |
| Pairings | It pairs well with savoury hams, such as Parma and San Daniele hams. As a starter, a seared salmon or prepared Japanese style in 'tataki' will reveal its many facets. For the main course, it could be paired with a leg of suckling lamb or a fillet of veal cooked at a low temperature. |
