Charles Clément

a Colombé le Sec Brut Champagne Chardonnay

Charles Clement Champagne has aroma from flowers, especially from hawthorn. It also has a bright yellow with golden reflections.

The champagne tastes very refreshing, with a note of generous and mouthwatering. It has a hint of meringue and a lengthy finish on lemon confit.

Gosset

Grande Réserve Brut Champagne Blend

Luminous, golden hue. The nose shows freshness and fruit with notes of lemon meringue pie followed by yellow fruit such as Mirabelle plums. Then, as the Champagne warms up, aromas of plums with slightly honeyed and toasted notes start to come through. The Champagne confirms its richness and volume. The Pinot Noir endows it with structure and depth. Hawthorn and white flower aromas fuse naturally together in a fine acidity sustained by citrus fruit. — 6 months ago
