Tasting notes
The colour is golden yellow, with emerald reflections and a fine effervescence. The nose reveals citrus notes such as orange zest punctuated by a hint of fresh hazelnut. The attack is fresh and unctuous, with great finesse. On the palate, we find notes of white flowers, tangerines and orange on a beautiful mineral length.
Food and wine pairings
Aperitifs, Cod fillet with orange butter and fennel, Salmon papillote with ash goat cheese and julienne of semi-crunchy vegetables.
