Visual aspect: persistent sparkling, fine and quite vivid bubbles. Pale gold colour, gleaming and quite fluid. Nose: mango, mirabelle plum, violet, raspberry, orange. Smoked, clayey. Palate: fresh and coated, with a creamy effervescence. Nice clayey chew, with a limestone straightforwardness coating the palate. Delectable finish, salty. Match with food: roasted back zander, lentils from Champagne and fravy. Comments: a Champagne with character.
