This vintage is a miraculous drop born in the year immediately after the war. The sparkling golden liquid is imbued with a complex aroma born from aging, with overlapping nuances of apricot, honey, and a hint of truffle. On the palate, the rich yet supple sweetness is exquisitely balanced with deep acidity. The long-lasting finish marks a rich passage of time, like a painting. Its flavor, a fusion of history and craftsmanship, is a true work of art that will add an extra touch of splendor to special moments.
