2022 vintage
Crystal-clear, pale pink color with violet hues. The fine mousse offers persistent chains of bubbles. The nose is vibrant with layered aromas of cherry and red berries. The bright acidity brings in a quality of freshness and crispiness on the palate, beautifully balancing the sugars. The cherry flavors lead to a pleasant, long finish.
