Millesime 2014

Maison Taisne Riocour · Côte des Bar, Champagne, France

The 2014 harvest showcases a classic and elegant style, which emphasizes precision and purity. Beautiful straw color, with a bright nose of citrus and white flower. The mouth is generous with notes of nuts, pastry, green apples and red fruit hints. Sensation of vivacity with mineral and saline accents.
