"Light gold. Fresh, energetic, mineral-driven apple and pear aromas, with a hint of peppery watercress. Deep and wine-like, with Poire William and apple flavors showing impressive depth and energy. Finishes with complex herb and mineral notes. A zero-dosage, uncompromising Champagne with impressive focus and serious structure."
