This vintage displays a luminous pink hue with subtle copper highlights. A fine, persistent stream of delicate bubbles rises and bursts gently at the surface. The aroma is direct, refined, and pure, opening with fresh red fruit notes—strawberry, raspberry, and cherry—intertwined with citrus hints of grapefruit. As it breathes, nuanced spices of cinnamon and vanilla emerge, followed by subtle dried fruit and brioche, enriching its aromatic complexity. The palate begins crisp and taut, evolving into a fuller, structured, and vibrant experience. Reflecting the nose, its mineral backbone supports generous Morello cherry from Pinot Noir and lightly candied citrus from Chardonnay. Soft pastry nuances hint at extended lees aging. Balanced tannins complement the juicy fruit freshness, culminating in a delicate, silky finish of remarkable length.
