Profile
The color is yellow with golden highlights, light and delicate bubbles. The wine is complex, greedy and rich. The first nose is expressed on fresh notes of yellow and white fruits. It opens with fruit marmalade, honey, nougat and vanilla, as well as a hint of roast and mocha. The palate is frank and lively, then gives way to the roundness that settles gradually.
Occasions & Pairings
The elegance and complexity of the Cuvée 4.5 gives it the versatility to pair well with Mediterranean seafood with a creamy sauces or lamb with chanterelle mushrooms.
