Bright medium deep straw colour. Fairly intense, classy, slightly honeyed, attractive, warm ripe lemon nose with some faint toasty notes. Fairly dry, medium bodied, quite well structured, slightly spicy, intense, ripe lemon flavours with a lingering, faintly toasty, harmonious, very effervescent, high acid finish. Has 12% alcohol and 11 g/L residual sugar with lot number L2111026A on the capsule. Consistently great value!

TASTING NOTE: Love the restraint and delicacy of this champagne - and so will the Europhile on your list. Subtle aromas of cooked apple, rolled pastry and sea salt lead to an immediate and racy attack of salt and stone laced with the gentlest note of lemon oil - all pinned to a tight core of cooked Granny Smith apple. And the bubbles are fine and persistent. Beautiful. Score - 91 (Carolyn Evans Hammond, thestar.com, Dec. 5, 2015) |
