Tasting Notes:

The Domaine Bernard Maillard Méthode Traditionnelle Brut boasts a pale straw colour with delicate green hues. As the bubbles gently rise to the surface, the wine releases a captivating bouquet of aromas. Fresh citrus notes of lemon and grapefruit mingle with hints of white flowers, such as acacia, and crisp green apple. A touch of minerality adds complexity and intrigue to the nose.

On the palate, the wine is lively and energetic, with a delightful mousse that dances on the tongue. The flavours echo the aromas, with a burst of citrus and orchard fruits balanced by a refreshing minerality. A touch of creaminess adds richness to the mid-palate, leading to a crisp and persistent finish.
