NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Pouring a delicate golden hue with fine, persistent bubbles, Louis Picamelot's "Les Terroirs" Brut greets the senses with a vibrant bouquet of green apple, pear, and a hint of citrus zest, complemented by nuances of brioche and almond.On the palate, it exhibits a delightful freshness, where crisp orchard fruit flavors dance harmoniously with subtle notes of toasted bread and a mineral undertone. This Brut showcases a balanced structure, with its lively acidity playing off against a creamy mousse, leading to a refreshingly long and elegant finish. A sparkling embodiment of Burgundian terroir and craftsmanship.
