This Champagne, named after the word "umami," represents the culmination of the de Souza family's exquisite techniques and the best of the terroir. The delicate bubbles, primarily from Chardonnay, blend with the umami and minerality of aging, creating a stunning harmony with delicate dishes, including Japanese cuisine.

Tasting Comments

Tasting Notes
In addition to aromas of ripe white peach and pear, nuances of hazelnut and brioche spread. In the mouth, delicate fruit flavors spread along with dense bubbles, while savory saltiness and minerals support the structure. The finish is accented with citrus peel and white pepper, and the refined complexity and harmonious flavor last for a long time. A highly refined champagne where maturity and energy coexist.

Pairing
Scallop carpaccio with yuzu, chicken and morel mushroom cream sauce, egg dish with white truffle
