The color has a pretty pale gold hue with fairly sustained green reflections.
The nose is distinguished from the start by its elegance and by buttery, toasted but above all honeyed notes.
On the palate, the impression on the nose is confirmed: everything is wrapped in cotton wool, this wine is velvety, the effervescence is totally melted in the heart of the wine and becomes one with it.
The length in the mouth is very great, the wine is really generous.
Complex wine, charming wine, gourmet wine, it will be appreciated on dishes that you would not suspect.
To be enjoyed with a hot Maroilles cheese in a puff pastry or even a very lightly caramelized apple tart with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

In 1857, the wool industry was in crisis, and Mr Pommery moved into the champagne trade to provide for his infant daughter. He died a year later in February 1858. The rest is history: the young widow Pommery took over the champagne business and led it on to success and glory.
Louise Pommery married Guy de Polignac in 1875. This Polignac branch remained owner of the House until the end of the 1980s, when the House went into the hands of various groups, to end with the Vranken group.
Pommery estate: ten years of work, started in 1868, were necessary to this masterpiece of Elizabethan style.
The superb staircase of 116 steps leads, 30 meters below ground, to a real underground cathedral. The Pommery cellars were built on ancient “crayères” dug by the Romans 2000 years ago.
Each underground gallery was named by Madame Pommery to pay tribute to her customers around the world.
The cellars currently shelter 20 million bottles, among which the House’s most ancient, rare vintages, kept in the wine museum.
The Pommery park was created in 1910 in order to bring light to the immense cellars, and Edouard Redon was the landscape architect.
