Tasting Notes
Aroma
The gently toasted and powdery bouquet discloses a
blend of ripe, sweet, juicy red fruit (Burlat cherry and
redcurrant jam foam), candied, roasted citrus fruit, and
dried nuts (hazelnuts) wrapped in soft roasted notes. After
a short aeration, the wine reveals notes of a more mineral
nature: warm, damp chalk and calcareous millstone heated
by the sun.
Appearance
Shimmering golden hue with bright highlights.
Very fine, even and fast-flowing bubbles.
Palate
The palate is complex, generous and kaleidoscopic. It
commences with a juicy, creamy body in which the ripe
fruit comes through again in the form of nectarine. It is like
biting into the fruit! The creamy, silky bubbles dance lightly
across the palate and tongue, drawing out and lengthening
the creamy substance leaving a rich yet translucent imprint.
We have the impression of completeness created by some
mineral and textured elements, which are underpinned
by spicy, oaky, powdery and almost camphorous notes.
The finish is long, textured, saline and sapid.
Vintage Notes
The 2016 vintage was characterised by particularly marked
weather variations: spring was cool, wet and relatively late
whereas summer was warm and dry with a heatwave in
late August followed by dry and sunny weather over the
harvest period which was highly beneficial to the ripening
of the grapes. Our Pinot noirs thrived in these dry, sunny
conditions and the heat has given them an intensely fruity
character and silky smooth texture. The Chardonnays are
just as outstanding although more chiselled and saline
in character.
