H. Lanvin & Fils Champagne
Tasting Notes:
A pale, gold champagne colour with fine notes and continuous bubbles in the glass. The bouquet is very stylish with creamy fruit, toasty yeast influence, smoky complexity and honeyed maturity. It tastes elegant, long and smooth with lovely richness and fine texture. It is fresh and soft on the palate and finishes with a lemon flavour.
