THE SENSORY EXPERIENCE

A refreshing and sensual fragrance of red and black berries. A rich and complex array of aromas (blueberries, gooseberries, peony). Delicate and ripe notes of roses and candied violets. A harmonious unfolding of delicious aromatics and pastry notes (panettone, cherry clafoutis). A delicate structure on the palate, with hints of cedarwood and blood orange jelly on the finish.

Pierre Hermé, Head Pastry Chef and Chocolatier, Maison Pierre Hermé in Paris, on this champagne:

"Olfactory notes of mild spices and candied violets [...]. On the palate, the aromatic fullness is revealed, rich and complex, with very nice pastry notes, woody aromas, the aromas of ripe fruits and tart citrus fruits [...]."
