This Champagne Impérial is offered in a Salmanazar format and comes in a wooden case that facilitates storage and presentation. In the glass it displays fine bubbles and a bright straw-yellow colour; on the nose it shows restrained, delicate notes of white fruit and a hint of brioche. The palate is balanced, with a lively texture that supports the sip and finishes clean and pleasant. It suits occasions where understated elegance is desired, from the dining table to larger celebrations.

To enjoy it best, serve it well chilled and open the bottle carefully given its size. The wooden case provides protection during transport and an impressive presentation for delivery or as a gift. It pairs with delicate starters, fish dishes or preparations with moderate flavours; it is also suitable as a gift when format and presentation are intended to make an impact. Store in a cool, dark place.
