No.1 Cuvée Méthode Traditionelle

This has to be the perfect aperitif, the bouquet is both pure and precise, it is seductive with complexity and depth. Aromas of citrus and fresh butter brioche, the  autolysis intensity increases as the wine opens out in glass, complexity and fruit  spice, flower, mineral and new. As the wine touches the palate the mousse  delivers a rush of flavours wrapped is a precise and bold texture, carrying with it flavours of citrus and white peach, then breadth and depth from entreillage of at least 18 months. Can you tell this is one of my favourites?
