Pale yellow with golden highlights. This Meunier Champagne offers an expressive nose with notes of fragrant flowers, such as honeysuckle or peony, followed by scents of garrigue, dried herbs and ripe lemon. The mouth glows with purity. All the originality of these cold clays is expressed by remarkable salinity and minerality in the mouth. The density of this Champagne’s finish shifts it towards roasted yellow lemon flavours.
PAIRING :
This champagne from the Tiersaudes locality provides a perfect match for dishes from the sea. Delight your guests by serving it with a king crab, a lobster al dente or a ceviche. Or, if you would rather enjoy this Champagne with a dessert, treat yourself by pairing it with a simple nut-based biscuit.
