Marrying matured appeal with youthful vivacity, this Brut Classique is undeniably perfect for celebratory occasions or as a sophisticated accompaniment for light delicacies and seafood. Astonishingly delightful in every sip. Truly an ode to quality and style.

Tasting Notes

Fine bead and string of pearl bubbles. Aromas of tarte tatin, apple and cinnamon with a light pear drop and biscuit nuance. Bright, vivacious and crisply zesty in the mouth. Tangy lime and green apple crunch with a richer, deeper, biscuit and sourdough undertone. The zingy citrus and creamy lees flavours are well balanced with acidity and fruit in complete harmony. Poised and elegant with a lingering aftertaste.
