Auxerrois and Pinot Blanc form the blend. Traditional-method production includes a second fermentation in bottle and fifteen to eighteen months of ageing on laths. Dosage is nine grams per litre.

Bright citrus and honey lead a lively, gently rounded nose. The palate is fresh and quietly textured, with lees ageing in neutral oak adding breadth without masking the fruit. Clean acidity keeps the wine precise, carrying the citrus and honey through a poised, refreshing and persistent finish.
