Tasting Notes
Analysis & Info

A classic blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay makes this a true MCC. A bouquet of toasted nuts, brioche, candyfloss and citrus, speak of the passion involved in making a sparkling wine of such class. The palate is rich and complex, with classic flavours of baked bread and marzipan.

Brand Group	Premium Range
Other	Made in the traditional way, this sparkling wine is blended only using the cuvee (first pressings). A blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay is used to emphasize the richness and elegance of this wine. The Chardonnay is partly fermented in older barrels, and underwent malolactic fermentation. After bottling, the wine spent 36 months on the lees to develop the brioche and complex nutty flavours these wines are known for. Disgorgement took place in March 2020 and the wine developed further richness on the cork.
