This wine displays aromas of Asian pear and ripe apple with a touch of honey and vanilla. The mouth is greeted with a rich and creamy mousse and the fruit of the nose continues on adding crème brûlée and stone fruit layered over black cherry. The finish is long and wraps up with hint of fresh ginger. Food Pairings: This wine is the perfect accompaniment to seafood. Oysters on the half shell with a chipotle lime mignonette or classic Maine lobster with drawn butter are fool proof pairings for this reputable brut. Cherry and peach on the palette, with its brilliant acid, pair well with lemon meringue pie or stone fruit galette with crème fraiche. It is also the perfect pairing to a great occasion and great company.
