Champagne Boutillez Marchand
Color: golden yellow, fine stream of bubbles with golden reflections. Nose: very expressive, featuring exotic fruits (pineapple), citrus (pomelo, lemon, bergamot), and ripe fruits. Notes of dried fruits and toast. Palate: very indulgent, with pastry aromas, honey, and delightful fruitiness. Great balance between roundness and the slight bitterness imparted by the oak. Pairing: lemon-yuzu cheesecake; langoustine tartare with grapefruit segments. Comment: a well-crafted champagne.
