Tasting
Appearance
Beautiful effervescence, a clear and intense pink colour
Nose
Fresh and appealing, the aromas in this wine create a delicious blend of fresh fruit – cherry, even morello, strawberry and raspberry – and white fruit aromas such as white peach and pear. The aromatic complexity of this rosé champagne promises a wonderful sensation on the palate
Palate
The attack is supple and intense, very fruit-forward. Its lightness and delicate character is both surprising and deliciously invigorating. Best served as an aperitif or with roasted meats

Tasting
Appearance
Nose
Palate
This wine has a light gold colour and is punctuated with a profusion of fine bubbles.
Fruity notes of candied apricots and fruit jellies with subtle almond aromas. The nose of this cuvée is expressive and very fruity, which makes this champagne elegant and full-bodied.
A clean attack with freshness retained throughout the tasting. The palate matches the aromas in the nose with notes of almonds and pastries that recall apricot tart. Its texture and structure make this a generous, tannic and complex champagne. This is a great wine for serving as an aperitif or with raw fish and shellfish.
