Visual aspect: golden and very bright hue. Nose: rich, intense nose with grilled, honeyed and Granny apple scents. Palate: fresh, smoky and hazelnut-flavoured first taste. Fine sparkling. Ample palate with a pleasant and tight structure and a good tension. Cream and mushroom flavours in the mid-palate. Match with food: rump of veal with horns of plenty; Dublin Bay prawn tails panéed with tonka bean. Comments: beautiful aftertaste. A racy and moreish Champagne.
