The bubbles of this sparkling wine shimmer in the glass incredibly fine, elegant and long-lasting. After the first swirl, one can perceive a perfect balance in this sparkling wine, as it does not stand out on the glass walls watery, syrupy or liqueur-like. To the nose, this Champagne Taittinger sparkling wine shows all sorts of peaches. As if that were not already impressive, liquorice, almond and aniseed join in due to the aging in small wooden barrels.

On the palate, the texture of this balanced sparkling wine is wonderfully melting and creamy. In the finish, this sparkling wine from the wine-growing region of Champagne finally inspires with considerable length. Once again, hints of peach appear.
