Tasting
Color Desc Pale gold with fine, persistent perlage
Palate Crisp acidity, fine mousse, linear mouthfeel, bright citrus and green apple flavors, subtle stone fruit, mineral backbone, balanced dryness, elegant length, and a refined, silky texture.
Finish A steely, racy finish with a salty, mineral edge and a lingering flinty note that echoes the high-altitude terroir, leaving a clean, crisp aftertaste that invites another sip.
Food Pairing Shellfish (oysters, mussels), grilled white fish, light salads with citrus vinaigrette, soft cheeses (brie, camembert), sushi, and delicate poultry dishes.
