" Luminous golden hue, platinum streaming bubbles. Lovely aromas, peony and violet, dried fig and apricot tart, marzipan and raspberry mille fuielle. The palate is full of nashi pear and pink grapefruit, with candied lime zest, coriander seed and stem ginger. A mineral drive keeps the pace fast but controlled, acidity bursting with vivacity and citrus freshness. A complexing saline note spears through giving a sapid tang and increasing appetite. Deliciously complex, the finish is a fitting finale to a very great Champagne. "
