NV Domaine de Colonat Reserve de Colonat - Cremant de Bourgogne
Tasting Notes
Pale straw with silvery reflections and a refined bead. The nose is crisp and expressive, offering green apple, lemon peel, and hints of brioche. On the palate, the mousse is creamy yet vibrant, delivering flavors of citrus, pear, and chalky minerality. A clean, elegant finish leaves a lasting impression of freshness and finesse.
