Tasting Notes
The light-colored robe of this vintage showcases a yellow hue with
earth tone highlights. The fine and patient effervescence forms a
persistent white elegant stream. The intense nose reveals floral and
fruity aromas, with hints of sweet peas, vetiver, along with touches
of raspberry, marshmallow, and vanilla cream. On the palate, the
approach is broad, tender, and vivacious, balancing warmth and
freshness. The texture is voluminous, loose, and warm, providing an
enveloping comfort. The long and appetizing finish offers a
delightful interplay of salty-sweet savoriness, accompanied by a
subtle warmth and tartness. This powerful and elegant 2018 vintage
precisely reflects its "solar" origin. It harmoniously pairs with
fragrant dishes featuring a supple texture, such as shrimp curry with
basmati rice, scrambled eggs with sea urchins, Champagne pink
lentil velouté, or Fontainebleau cheese.
