## Tasting notes

Pale straw yellow with light golden nuances (the English sheet describes an intense golden colour with coppery nuances). Sage, a hint of brioche and bread crust, and white flowers on the nose. On the palate the structure and authenticity of Pinot Noir, balanced by fresh drinkability and a very fine bubble, for a long, savoury finish.
