"Light greenish yellow, with silvery highlights and a lively mousse. A floral nose, showing fine white peach fruit and fresh apple, with a mineral freshness and a hint of biscuit. The fine, silky palate is carried by a lively acidity, a vinous texture, and a lemony aftertaste; an animating food wine with good ageing potential."

The northerly region that gives its name to the world's most celebrated sparkling wine, made by secondary fermentation in bottle from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Chalky soils and a cool climate yield wines of finesse and longevity.
The sole appellation for true Champagne, producing sparkling wines of finesse and complexity by traditional method from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
