This specificity gives it a remarkable texture and fruitiness. This wine is made using the traditional method. The most festive of the Diane wines celebrates with panache all the moments of joy and will delight all lovers of fine bubbles.

Weather conditions
2023 was marked by a uniform start to vegetation: bud-break dates returned to normal, foliage developed rapidly and the bunches emerged beautifully. Heavy rainfall in the spring tarnished the start of the season somewhat, with mildew appearing in places. There was no hot summer in 2023, but relatively cool nights and warm but not excessively hot days in July and August created ideal ripening conditions for the grapes, which produced remarkable aromatic potential.
Harvest
27 September - 09 October 2023
Tasting
Crystal-clear, pale yellow with subtle silver highlights and a persistent rim.
The nose is both intense and refined, opening with delicate floral nuances that quickly give way to lush aromas of red berries, especially redcurrants.
On the palate, the wine is beautifully balanced, combining freshness and aromatic intensity. Notes of white fruits such as peach and nectarine are delicately expressed. The fine, delicate bubbles add a lovely liveliness to the whole, offering a sparkling experience full of finesse.
Terroir
Clay-limestone and clay-silica soil.
