No.1 Family Estate Cuvée Méthode Traditionelle

A seductive and enticing bouquet of complexity and depth with scents of lemon and fresh butter brioche, layers of autolysis complexity with a gentle spice, white flowers and mineral backbone. As the wine touches the palate a rush of textured mousse envelopes the palate carrying flavours of citrus and white peach, the autolysis of 18 months ensures a fine lees and complexity and is carried by a saline and refreshing acid line. Best drinking from 2024 through 2030+. A perfect aperitif style and represents excellent value.
