Appearance: Pale yellow with straw reflections, with fine, persistent bubbles.
Aroma: Expect fresh and expressive notes of green apple, lemon zest, citrus blossom, and white peach. Over time, these may evolve to reveal nutty, brioche, and toasted notes. The distinctive chalky, mineral, and saline aromas are prominent and reflect the wine's terroir.
Palate: The wine is pure, lively, and precise on the palate, with flavors of ripe citrus and white fruit. It is supported by refreshing acidity and pronounced minerality. The finish is long and saline.
Food pairing:
Seafood and shellfish: Its saline finish complements oysters, crab, lobster, and other shellfish perfectly.
Fish: Pairs well with fresh seafood, sashimi, and grilled fish.
Cheese: Works nicely with delicate goat cheese and stinky cheeses.
Other options: Consider pairing it with white sauce dishes, fried foods, and as an aperitif.
