Tasting notes

This expressive and delicate Champagne will surprise you with its length and great purity. An intense and complex nose of extreme freshness with fruit notes (citrus, white fruits). A very pleasant and rounded taste attack, which ends with a nice vivacity with notes of white peaches and Mirabelle plums. 

Pairings

Champagne for aperitifs and first courses.
Its citrus and white fruit notes make it ideal to accompany the most delicate dishes: fish and shellfish, shellfish soup, as well as white meat and poultry dishes such as chicken breast with mushrooms.
