Quite a rich tasting Champagne with flavours of apple, almond and honey with a lemon background. The use of mainly red grapes (Pinot Noir) causes this richness. As the grape skins are not used in the winemaking process, their colour is not added to the wine and so we have a white wine from red grapes (known as a Blanc de Noir). Lightly fizzy and a pleasant taste.
