Golden hue – Extremely fine, delicate bubbles. A very complex wine which develops light, fine woody aromas revealing hints of vanilla, brioche and bread crumbs. Its grapes come from old vines growing in Ay¨, E´cueil and Romery and it undergoes one year’s ageing in large oak casks (foudres) and barrels, making L’Authentique full and powerful on the palate, with hints of vanilla and caramel. Only 4,837 bottles are produced each year and are aged sur lie for 5 years before disgorgement. 60% Pinot Noir - 40% Chardonnay
