L'Ormarins Blanc De Blanc

Eye-catching stream of tiny, fine bubbles leads to a nose of lime leaf, sea breeze and a subtle undertone of florality, honey and dried apple rings. The vibrance of the crisp, fizzy lime and lemon sherbert tang is immediately apparent in the mouth, along with a grapefruit hint. Then a rich peacock’s tail of toasty, creamy, honeyed oatmeal cookie flavours unfolds. It’s full, rounded and textural but never loses its focus or taut tension because of the succulent acidity throughout. Beautifully composed, it is bright and fresh yet elegant, structured, genteel and rewardingly long.
