Notes from Producer

The Cuvée Elisabeth Salmon 2008 vintage is the expression of the finest Pinot Noir (55%) and Chardonnay (45%) terroirs. It offers a unique and sensorial experience, the fruit of more than a decade of patience.

The presence of an ancestral savoir-faire is recognised through the art of assemblage and rigorous selection from an exceptional harvest. This cuvée stands out for its sparkle and purity that reveal a noble, unique character.

Appearance: Luminous, with soft, coppery shimmers and a sustained salmon pink hue.

Nose: There is a refreshing sensorial experience of citrus peel and red berry jelly. With the exquisite sensation of a rich and complex aromatic generosity. Pretty, refined and mature olfactory notes that bring out the inimitable fragrances of sweet spices and wild raspberry pulp.

Palate: A measured strength which is delicate and charming at the same time, with the harmonious maturing of flavours (mandarin, blood orange, and Reinette apple tart). An ample and full character in the mouth unveiling a chalky edge and persistent finish of citron zest as well as red and white currants.

Dosage: 7g/L

Ageing on lees: 10 years
