The Champagnes
—

On breathing, the smell of yellow fruity with summery stone seems immediate with the fresh juicy character of white peach and fresh apricot. A stony background associates precisely with the graphite. After a few seconds, a mix of exotic white flowers blends deliciously; Tiare flower, lotus, frangipani, while a large condensed stature stands out. Slowly, the background is colored with orange and its flower, tangerine, mango, exotic melon and fragrances reminiscent of the panettone biscuit. The pastry feeling of a Mirabelle plum tart, dried fruit and white raisins is a treat. Sweet spices exalt, fresh coriander and the slight moisture of a brown mushroom offer a faithful vegetal impulse as a perfect grafting base for fine chalk. The finish precisely defines the axis, the zest and the subtle play of a sharpen generosity.

In the palate, it is both loving and tonic of liveliness. Very absolutely, it highlights again the flesh and zest of orange, tangerine, apricot and peach of fine farming origin. The quality of the flesh and its juice is appreciated, until the skin, including the great intrinsic bitterness. A lightly woody and fresh noble, with a fine acid and warm chalk, gives the wine a remarkably slender structure. Here, the Pinot noir is whole and its companion the Chardonnay gives it a kindly identity support.

The first scents arouse the fleshy of the flesh of the blond stone fruits: plum, Mirabelle plum... The richness and generosity of the fruity substance is immediate, intense and then smooth at the same time. When aired, the fruit concentrates on its pulp and the forest world is felt through the humus, the undergrowth and the brown mushrooms. The story continues with Viennese features of fine pastries, dried flowers, candied orange peel and fruity liqueur. Beyond the noble extraction of the body's fragrances, the chiselled limestone dimension gradually becomes clearer in the axis of general complexity. A few sweet spices in correlation with cereal touches skillfully complete the deep olfactory imprint.

The palate is both tender and rigorous, the subtle touch perfectly balances the blond fruity flavours and the earthy dimension of the finely powdered rock of white salt. A few milky, noticeably caramelised impressions go with a warm, beautifully contrasted finish of absolute marine freshness.

Candied yellow citrus fruits and their macerated zests covered with brioche and warm breadcrumbs define the initial scents. The concentrated lemonade of ripe pear and apple peel form an extraction with volume and fresh concentration. The register shows itself to be clear-sighted, ripe and dense. This is followed by a few drops of infusion and flowers, lime tree, lemon verbena, jasmine, acacia and white rose. The opening offers syrupy perceptions such as limoncello liqueur and a pearly cover finely coated with dried fruits with a fatty shell, almond powder. The pigmentation linked to the chalky white subsoil emerges with great projection and accuracy, while the balance and generous size prove to be perfect. The stature stretches remarkably well and the progressive sequences are precise. The green zest is strongly accentuated and stands out in correlation with a marine relief, seaweed, iodine and oily white fish flesh. A vegetal succession completes the senses, chlorophyll, dill-fennel, green chilli pepper, white pepper, fresh coffee beans and spring buds are the illustration of it.

The sensation in the palate is enveloping, its flinty stone-grey centre assure a precise axis and fits perfectly into the welcoming and affectionate unctuousness in terms of juicy fruitiness. The citrus fruits are rich and concentrated, a thin caramelised cooking protects the whole and the heart, thinly acid, evokes consciously upbringing.The marine expanse defined by water and white salt is perfectly underneath. The finish, condensed and then stretched, rigorously combines the bitterness of a Granny Smith skin, a beautiful acidity and the freshness of iodised seawater. We feel the strength of the terroir.

The first fragrances are carnal and sweet. The fruity blend is grenadine red with zesty citrus-orange accents. Through a sublime natural wild pigmentation of sap, the skeleton gradually takes shape in the company of a fruity sweetness spontaneously carried towards the patient solar maturity. The crunchiness has an engaging soul, a pure and deliciously olfactory delicacy. A few moments later, the ultra-scented floral development evokes Japanese rose, peony and violet. Also, the aroma of blood orange is intense and we are at the heart of red and black summer fruits, the mix is splendid. The undulations, sometimes in the form of liqueurs are delicious to smell, bitters, smoked and then salted Iberian accents are enhanced by liquorice candy, a five Chinese spice blend and a sincere and deep fresh chalk.

The touch in the mouth is soft and rich. The great natural bitterness extends the registers of the bouquet supremely well. It is a delight, one navigates perfectly between citrus fruits, fruits, flowers and wild reverberation. The power of a cherry and wild strawberry liqueur can be felt on a black and intense base. Liquorice, vanilla and greasy chalk are all part of this spherical hold and the tannins worthy of the great Pinot Noir grapes here push the representation of this grape variety pushed to its ultimate capacity.

The fragrances instantly and faithfully translate attractive white limestone reflections with a sharply defined citrus and lime note. The contours of this axis are adorned with a fruity white flesh with a stone, white plum and Mirabelle plum translating this sensitive and delicate generosity tempered by precise and juicy pinot noir. A gourmet warmth of fine sweets is integrated with delicacy and delight. A few subtle nervous essences of white mushroom, fresh earth and greasy vegetables guarantee an ageing potential.

The sensation in the mouth is precise, lively and prominent, its edge sharpens the effervescence deployment and carries the acidity of the lemony characters towards a frank and invigorating verticality. It is athletic and performs to perfection.

The initial smoky aromas, rigorously invaded by stone ranging from cold tense calcic white to stony grey flint, set the marine fossilization. Some green effects of lively zests recall the precision and intensity of Asian citrus. The central beam stretches with great straightness, the terroir rises in columns, and seaweed gradually grafts itself while iodine and the fragmented atmosphere of sedimentary rock assert themselves towards an adipic needle. Gradually but discreetly, the acidic red fruitiness of redcurrant and barely ripe raspberry meticulously assimilates with pink berries on notes of juniper and timut pepper. The beneficial oxygen reveals a bouquet of purple flowers and warm ash, subtly perfuming the surface. A reinforcement imbued with white stone fruits stands out, detecting white plum subtly preserved in the company of aromatic herbs such as thyme, bay leaf, Thai basil, sage, and coriander. Under this pixelated skin, spices exhale under multiple suggestions: caraway, anise, licorice, green curry, and cardamom.

The effervescent mouthfeel is extremely meticulous, its dispersion is based on a lively, elongated, magnetic tension of original sapidity. The hematite fragmentation capillarizes a pure and inflexible verticality. Gradually, the extraction and calorific resurgence of the soils draw an animated and then magnetized epicenter. Finally, the overall movement flows towards a clear trajectory, without filter, the perceptive bitters nourished by green peppers blend with singular and warming relevance. Virtuoso, the finish, armed with frank mineralization, relies on an intense and calorific perception imbued with sodium, corals, and marine vegetation.
