Blanc de Blancs Magnum Twenty Eighteen
Bright gold in colour with a fine, persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is full of ripe citrus aromas, with lemon and mandarin, alongside notes of orchard fruits, fresh melon and white flowers. The palate is bursting with honeyed citrus, lemon curd, ripe stone fruits and pear. There are soft spice notes too, with ginger, vanilla and cardamom, alongside brioche, spiced bread and toasted nuts, all wrapped up with a beautiful zippy, salty minerality.
A generous, rich, yet very elegant style of Blanc de Blancs, with a long, complex finish.
