TASTING NOTES

APPEARANCE
The brilliant body is pale yellow with silver highlights, a sign of the high proportion of exceptional Chardonnays.The bubbles are fine and form a persistent and delicately creamy ring of foam.

AROMA
The wine is subtle and fresh on the nose. The initial mineral aromas quickly give way to green and then floral notes with the fragrance of elderflowers and spicy cinnamon undertones.

PALATE
The entry onto the palate is clean and lively, dominated by very exceedingly fresh citrus notes. These segue into much fuller, rounder and silkier flavours where white peaches in syrup predominate.The finish is rich, lingering and bursting with flavour. Prélude «Grands Crus» is a joyous blend of finesse and complexity. its balance of freshness and aromatic expression is outstanding.
