NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Buena Vista La Victoire Brut Champagne dazzles with a brilliant golden straw hue.A lively effervescence gives way to a bouquet of crisp green apples, brioche, and subtle almond nuances. The palate is invigorated with a fresh acidity that harmoniously intertwines with flavors of citrus zest, pear, and a hint of toasted oak. Its mousse is creamy, leading to a prolonged, mineral-tinged finish, a testament to its Champagne terroir.
