Gault&Millau's review 2021

The aromatic complexity stretches to mature white fruits, candied reinette apples and stewed bergeron apricots. Very fine, refreshing bubbles. The homogeneous palate expresses flavors of white fruit and spicy candied citrus. The finish is restrictive. Ideal as an aperitif or as a hot starter, with langoustines snacked in basil oil and fennel confit.
