Visually, this champagne is adorned with a pale gold colour and moves with fine, lively bubbles, promising incomparable pleasure. Aromas of flowers, ripe, candied and dried citrus fruits, as well as marzipan and gingerbread stimulate the nose.Notes of hazelnut, nougat, barley sugar, fruit and citrus jelly, almonds, brioche and honey explode in the mouth.
