In the glass
Aroma: hazelnut, walnut, cocoa, butter, russet apple, hay, hops, white pepper, citrus
Palate: hazelnut, citrus, minerals
Yellow and crystalline after years of ageing, with a persistent creamy mousse from very fine bubbles. The house's long aged cuvee: mature, piquant and complex, extra brut so the sugar never masks the acidity.
What it pairs with
-
Aged hard cheese
The nut and cocoa register meets a crystalline cheese and the acidity clears the fat. -
Lobster with butter
Four years and more on the lees give the weight for rich shellfish. -
Roast guinea fowl
Extra brut dosage keeps the palate clean against browned white meat.
