The Brut Réserve NV is characterized by its harmonious balance and refined profile:
Appearance: Pale straw yellow with a fine, persistent mousse

Palate: Medium-bodied with a creamy texture, showcasing flavors of poached pear, citrus zest, and a touch of almond

Disgorgement Date: Late 2022

Appearance: This cuvée, with reflections of straw yellow, stands out by the finesse of its slowly rising bubbles and its persistent and abounding mousse.
The tiny mousse tells a lot about the quality of this impressive Champagne. It is quite full in style, with flavors of white currants and a rich, but still bone-dry aftertaste. It is a perfect food Champagne, with structure and a good tension between richness and elegance.
