Same wine as the standard bottle, just in a smaller format, so the focus stays on the house style rather than anything driven by ageing differences. This cuvee is built around Chardonnay, which gives it a lighter, more lifted feel than many blends in this category. Citrus and white fruit sit at the centre, with lemon, apple, and pear coming through cleanly. What defines it is the balance between freshness and softness. It does not lean too sharp, but it also avoids becoming round or heavy. Everything feels quite controlled and even from start to finish. The fruit shows clearly at the front, then settles into light pastry notes in the background. Nothing dominates, and there is no real shift in direction as it moves across the palate. Texture is smooth and easy. The bubbles are fine, and the wine feels light without being thin. It is more about drinkability than complexity.
