The colour retains a youthful, luminous and elegant champagne hue. The effervescence, now more subtle, takes the form of scattered bubbles, reflecting controlled ageing and the time spent in the cellar.
The nose is intense and expressive. It reveals a rich array of aromas, blending notes of hazelnut, gingerbread and fresh button mushrooms. The overall impression is complex and mature without being overpowering, with lovely depth.
The palate is full-bodied and expansive right from the first sip. It fully confirms the aromas detected on the nose, with lovely continuity and distinct complexity. The texture is generous and enveloping, offering a sense of controlled maturity and a lovely length.
