On the nose, this Chardonnay Pinot Noir Champagne opens with notes of strawberry, raspberry and red cherry, before revealing hintsof blood orange and strawberry candy. With aeration, more spicy or umami nuances appear, signs of controlled maturation.

On the palate, the attack is full-bodied and precise, combining rich fruitiness with lively acidity. The texture is silky, with a distinct freshness on the finish. Its elegant structure comes from the balanced blend and prolonged ageing.
