    Overview

    Heidsieck & Co. Monopole White Top Blanc de Blancs

     
    Tasting Notes:
    Pale yellow with green reflections. Regular & persistent bubbles.
     
    Initial aromas of acacia & hawthorn followed by stone-fruit notes of nectarine & peach eventually developing into warmer notes of fresh baked pastries.
     
    In the mouth, similar stone-fruit and white flower characteristics appear on the palate. Very well balanced with a hint of vanilla on the finish.
     
    Food Pairing:
    A perfect champagne for aperitifs, particularly in summer time. It is an excellent accompaniment for seafood and shellfish; perfect with fish tartare.
     
    Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay.
