"A lovely aperitif bubble"

"The nose reveals a milky, delicate aroma, dusted with fresh almonds and Piedmont hazelnuts. That's all it takes to win us over, especially as the bubbles are light and effective, giving the palate a perfect aperitif signature with a finish of precisely measured white flowers and a hint of candied ginger."

About wine:

The nose reveals a milky, delicate aroma, dusted with fresh almonds and Piedmont hazelnuts. That's all it takes to win us over, especially as the bubbles are light and effective, giving the palate a perfect aperitif signature with a finish of precisely measured white flowers and a hint of candied ginger.

About the estate:

It was in Mesnil-sur-Oger, in the heart of the Côte des Blancs, that Hubert Robert (grandfather of the current owner) created the first group of winegrowers in the 1930s to press and vinify the fruit of their harvest together. In 1960, André Robert bought the current house, which has 19th-century chalk cellars. Chardonnay is the soul of the estate, with the wines being aged in barrels on lees with bâtonnage and late bottling. A collection of old vintages is available.
