Tasting Notes

Appearance

• Gleaming, bright yellow hue with magnificent, fine, slow-moving bubbles that signal its finesse and precision.

Nose (Aroma)

• Intensely aromatic and precise, with vivid notes of acacia blossoms, roasted lemon, ripe peaches, and mirabelle plums.

• Subtle iodized, powdery, and roasted nuances emerge with air, reflecting extensive lees aging (“sur lattes”) and impressive aromatic development.

Palate & Texture

• Soft yet delicately vibrant on the palate—imagine a rich zabaglione, offering juicy ripe fruit intertwined with chalky minerality.

• Bubbles are tactile and integrated, with a saline minerality evocative of oyster shells and crushed stones.

• Chalky textures and wheat notes echo the late-ripening Chardonnays from the 2016 heatwave vintage.
