A white gold in color with delicate and persistent bubbles, Grand Siecle No. 26 offers a very complex nose which mixes honeysuckle, lemon, clementine and fresh butter aromas, followed by notes of hazelnut and a touch of honey. The feel in the mouth is very delicate and fresh with candied lemon and fresh hazelnut aromas. The palate is silky and mineral with notes of honeysuckle, flaked almonds and clementine. Country: France Region: Champagne Appellation: Champagne Grape: Chardonnay 58%, Pinot Noir 42% Drink: Now-2035

The bubble was completely gone but nevertheless it was a joyful wine. Nutty tones and mandarin sweets.
