"Aged for 78 months on its lees . . . . Pale gold. An explosively perfumed bouquet evokes candied citrus and orchard fruits, white flowers and smoky minerals, with a spicy topnote adding vivacity. Tangy and precise on entry, them deeper and more broad in the middle, offering intense pear and orange flavors and a touch of candied ginger. Closes on a chalky note, with excellent clarity and length. This Champagne was bottled exclusively in magnums."
