Tasting note
A light golden colour and fine, vivacious bubbles, holding a promise of pleasure. Aromas of flowers in bloom, ripe, dried and citrus fruits, as well as marzipan and gingerbread. Flavours of hazelnut, nougat, barley sugar, jellied and citrus fruits, almonds, brioche and honey.

Structure
A bar appears only where the producer published a number. Measured figures come from the producer's technical sheet; the body bar is inferred from alcohol and labelled that way.
This producer publishes none of these numbers for this wine, so no bar is drawn. None of the producer technical sheets behind these wines publishes tannin as a number, so no wine gets a tannin bar.
