Le Sous Bois
Tasting notes
Appearance
A crystal-clear, radiant robe in a dazzlingly bright golden yellow. The corona of bubbles rises with disciplined elegance and vibrant energy.
Palate
A burst of flavors showcasing subtle notes (milk rolls, melted butter, and gentle spices), ideal for the development of fine Champagne wines enriched by meticulous aging.
Aroma
The aroma delivers a rich blend of harmonious notes, including pastry, citrus, and orchard fruits, intertwined with alluring malty hints that evolves into mocha and bergamot.
Tasting
Its strength of character and integrity make it the ideal accompaniment to hard cheeses, white meats with morel mushrooms, or Girolle mushrooms.
