50% Chardonnay + 50% Pinot Noir for an excellent zero dosage that is close to 90 points. Straw yellow with gold-green reflections, it has an effervescence composed of fine, numerous and persistent bubbles. The nose has an elegant bouquet, clear fruity notes such as pear and apple, but also fragrant with chalk and butter. There is also a slight almond nuance with a hint of roasting and smoke. In the mouth it is structured, moderately warm, soft, very fresh and sapid. Excellent persistence.
