The wine reveals a crystalline pale-gold hue, lit by subtle highlights. Its fine, persistent effervescence attests to the precision of the ageing and to the harmony of a great classic vintage.
In perfect keeping with the 2008 style, defined by a remarkable tension, the nose opens on a discreet touch of reduction with toasty nuances. Gradually, elegant notes of dried fruit and citrus emerge, underpinned by a chalky minerality of striking purity. With aeration, the wine gains breadth and complexity: delicate hazelnut, orange zest and smoky touches, all balanced by the vintage’s vibrant freshness.
The attack is straight and precise, reflecting the masterful balance of 2008. A vibrant freshness carries the wine with energy, set against a creamy, silky texture that underscores its generosity. The cuvée extends into a long finish, revealing ripe-fruit aromas (apricot, quince), supported by a saline minerality and lingering tension. The mid-palate evolution fully expresses the classic nature of the vintage: purity, precision, maturity and depth.
