Michel Arnould & Fils Cuvee Carte d'Or Grand Cru 2014

Made from the oldest vines in Verzenay and the vines from the C??te des Grands Blancs, this Grand Cru cuvee is created exclusively from the wine of one exceptional year, producing a vintage champagne. Aging a minimum of 4 years gives this cuvee the prestige to become a "Gold Card" champagne. A sparkling white-gold color with lovely gold tints. The bubbles are fine and regular. On the nose, notes of licorice and warm pastry blend with roasted apricot and blood orange. Aeration frees nuances of spices and one can discover a natural depth. With a silky unctuousness, the creamy palate plays with both the generosity of the 2014 vintage and a juicy quality, which brings a lightness to this cuvee and makes it even more delicate.
