"Pale golden yellow, silver highlights, and a fine, lively, and persistent mousse. First, freshly baked pastry, biscuit, and almond, accented with acacia honey and blossom, fine nuances of candied lime zest, ripe cherry, and a background note of orange: a symphonic bouquet. An enveloping texture that conveys great freshness and a firm calcareousness combined with fruity acidity; appears young and firm, exhibiting a powerful finale with enormous length; true Champagne lovers have rightly looked forward to this classic beauty. Lively, complex, and precise, carried by an unbelievable lightness and a gustatory joyousness. Champagne couldn't be better."

A key Champagne grape lending fruitiness, roundness and approachability to blends alongside Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
