"A wonderfully elegant, complex and pure nose offers up aromas of lemon rind, green apple, white flowers and a hint of cherry. The palate impression displays the same refinement as the nose with its very fine mousse and delicate flavors that still deliver outstanding punch on the balanced and impressively long finish. A Champagne of subtlety and grace that is drinking perfectly now though it could certainly be held longer if desired."
