WineDiva's Review

Creamy, complex, persistent.
85% of the grapes for this cuvee come from premier cru and grand cru vineyards. It is a toasty Champagne with meringue, creamy yellow apples and roasted nut aromas along with whipped honey and lemon curd spread on toasted biscuits. A fine bead, the palate also shows patisserie, baked citrus and yellow fruit flavours. Complex and persistent, it's an elegant fizz
