Mythical champagne
Inimitable presentation, aesthetic reference now unmissable.
Aspect:
Golden,
radiant.
Graceful
bubbles.
Delicate
bead of foam.
Nose:
Aromatic
explosion, revelation of the fullness of the champagne.
Initially
marked by the fragrances of red and black fruits and cherry liqueur, signatures
of the Pinot Noir (50%) chosen in the Grands Crus of the Mountain of Reims
(Bouzy, Verzy, Verzenay, Aÿ and Ambonnay).
The
scents of white fruits and candied exotic fruits the join in, characteristic
signs of the Chardonnay (50%) rigorously selected in the Grands Crus of the
Côte des Blancs (Chouilly, Cramant, Oger, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger and Avize) and in
the terroir of Montgueux.
Outstanding
roasted touches thanks to 10 years of ageing on laths of the bottles.
Palate:
Splendid
purity at the opening, enhanced by the minerality of the chalk.
The
mouth becomes velvet, powerful and creamy, revealed by the refined
effervescence.
Finish
supported by a heat wave, sensual and enveloping, punctuated by soft spices.
Exceptional
length on the palate.
Guillaume
Roffiaen, cellar master of the Champagne house Nicolas Feuillatte, was able to
soak up the personality of this Palmes d’Or Brut Millésime 2006 to stage the
touching soul of the great terroirs
of Champagne.
Partner
for all selected occasions, with a roasted duckling, apples and honey, for
example.
