A blend of Pinot Noir (60%) and Chardonnay (40%) the wine is named after the owners daughter and has seen a minimum of two years on lees prior to disgorgement.

A pretty burnt orange to pink hue in the glass with a fine persistent bead that only comes from Methode Traditionelle. The nose combines rich brioche and and creamier notes alongside wild strawberry, citrus and fresh flowers.

The palate has great balance with a line of red apple and citrus inspired acidity a constant. There is a return of the strawberry notes with some biscuity complexity that leads into a long, lemon zest dominant finish.

Drinking well now, but as a vintage sparkling this has plenty of potential to age well over the medium term.
