Cazals - Vive

Vinification:

• In thermoregulated tanks and malolactic fermentation achieved.
• Ageing on lees in vaulted cellar for 5 years.
• Harvest 2017 – Dosage 3 grams per liter.

Tasting:

• Eye: A crystalline robe with a golden reflection reveals a dynamic effervescence with fine bubbles.
• Nose: An elegant nose typical of the Chardonnays from 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 after aeration.
• 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 beautiful length.

Food pairing: This cuvée will go perfectly with aperitif or as an accompaniment to your oysters, fish, seafood, sushi and sashimi.
