Cazals - Millésime 2016

Terroir: 100% Chardonnay blend of our parcels of Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger – Grand Cru.

Vinification:

• In thermoregulated tanks and malolactic fermentation achieved.
• Ageing on lees in vaulted cellar for 6 years.
• Disgorgement end 2023 – Dosage 3 grams per liter.

Tasting:

• Eye: A crystalline color with a golden reflection reveals a dynamic effervescence with fine bubbles.
• Nose: An elegant nose typical of the Chardonnays of the Côte des Blancs. With sweet aromas of candied citrus, pear and white flowers balanced by a slight acidity reminiscent of the Granny Smith apple. After opening iodine and menthol notes are expressed in turn.
• Palate: In the first mouth, a pure and deep attack carried by a beautiful minerality. The aromas discovered in the nose under confirmed one by one to the tasting which ends with a beautiful length.

Food pairing: This cuvée will go perfectly with seafood, oysters, white fish as well as sushi and sashimi. You can serve it without problems as an aperitif or during the meal.
