Super fine bubbles in a bright, golden liquid, offer the promise of pleasurable sensations to come, like yeasty, fresh brioche, citrus and hazelnut aromas. The fine bubbles on the palate are gentle, yet tantalizing, mingling with the lacey, citrus fruit of Chardonnay (50%), light notes of raspberry and finesse from Pinot Noir (35%) and berry, floral, spicy, meaty notes from Pinot Meunier (15%). It is a seamless union of flavors into a voluptuous, rich, creamy, yeasty, mouthwatering wine. Enjoy with someone special, or someone you want to be special.
