La robe is enlivened by fine, lively bubbles that feed a delicate collar. The rather dense and satiny disc closes a rich and nuanced visual sensation

Aromas The first nose evokes scents of ginger, pippin apple, lemon zest. Allowed to breathe, it develops notes of peach skin, yellow grapefruit and dried apricot. It reveals after a few minutes smells of quince compote, flint, jasmine, orange, mirabelle plum, fig.

Palate The approach on the palate is supple and fresh with a creamy and melted effervescence. The wine develops with a luscious and fleshy substance reminiscent of citrus fruits, yellow and white fruits. The mid-palate is orchestrated by a clay minerality that gives roundness, coating and fruity juiciness. The iodized freshness and citrus aromas prolong the pleasure of the palate towards a delicately melted and saline finish, whose tension enhances the fruity gluttony and the mineral aromas of flint.
