- A beautiful golden shimmer through colours of straw yellow and reflections of gold and a fine, delicate mousse that is creamy and captivating. The nose is mature, voluptuous, and fresh yet bright. It exhales delicious notes of gingerbread, liquorice and meringue with delicate white fruit, mandarin peel and a subtle touch of almond pastry. There is also great mineral power: dense and rich with the Chardonnay flexing its iodine character.
In 2013, the grapes were slow to ripen, so this was one of the last vintages harvested in October. Spring arrived late after a particularly long and cold winter. Meanwhile, mid-April was exceptionally hot, dry and sunny, with over 800 hours of sunshine – unprecedented in Champagne country! The grapes developed with a new-found impetus. Some light rainfall in early September helped the clusters increase in size and ripen at an accelerated rate.

The nose is mature, voluptuous, and fresh yet bright. It exhales delicious notes of gingerbread, liquorice and meringue with delicate white fruit, mandarin peel and a subtle touch of almond pastry.
