Straw yellow color
The nose shows varied and intense aromas of white pepper, candied citrus peel, with cedar and the smoky bergamot. Some fine spices are added with red and white currants. The whole is of great finesse.
On the palate it stretches with agility between the verticality expressed by the hardness, and the creaminess of such a long refinement. The synthesis is a very fine champagne, and perfectly indicative of the denomination of belonging and the dosage.
Vigorous and masculine champagne. Jean Diot makes one of the best expressions of extra brut sans année.
