Pale straw yellow with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose is fresh and expressive, showing lemon zest, white flowers, green apple and subtle herbal notes. On the palate, it is lively and beautifully precise, with bright citrus acidity, delicate pear and orchard-fruit flavours and a distinctly saline, mineral character. Fine bubbles and a dry, refreshing texture lead to a long finish with hints of citrus peel and bitter herbs. An elegant and highly distinctive expression of Gringet.
