BRUT NATURE
INTENSITY BALANCE & HARMONY
"A pure expression of the union of Pinot noir and Chardonnay"

“Les Treilles”. In the past, vines were cultivated in the gardens, along a wall, on an arbor or a trellis (treillage). The Pearl is a nod to the Chardonnay grape from which it is made.

TO THE EYE : Bright, yellow gold color with very fine bubbles and a persistent mousse.
ON THE NOSE: Frank and intense. At first it exhibits aromas of dried fruits. It then reveals all its complexity by expressing gourmet aromas of dried fruits: fig, pineapple and apricot. The finish is subtle with notes of honey, gingerbread and pastries.
ON THE PALATE : The attack in the mouth is in harmony with the nose - aromatic and delicious. The balance between body, acidity and alcohol is perfect. The whole is very round and offers a length of aromatic persistence on the palate close to 10 caudalies, with some minerality.
GOURMET PAIRINGS:
Carpaccio of scallops & Kumquat.
Trout caviare, Horseradish & sauce Vichyssoise.
Arctic char.
Langoustines cooked and raw in a saffron bouillon.
