Millésime 1996 Vintage
This is the greatest vintage of the last century. It offers a palate which blends strength, refined flavours and fruity aromas
Transparent, brilliant, with sparkling golden highlights
Fine, long-lasting mousse with a creamy finish
An initial burst of fruity, biscuity flavours with notes of almond and nuts, followed by a second nose of red plums and mirabelles
A delightfully fresh initial impression, pure notes of autumn fruits with a hint of mirabelles
A perfect balance of alcohol, sweetness and acid. Bouquet and palate are in perfect harmony. An excellent vintage that will take its place in the history of the centuries.
