Product Overview
Importer's Notes:
"The history of Champagne Collet is inextricably linked to the history of the Champagne region. A founding member of COGEVI, Champagne Collet’s history harkens back to the Revolt Champenoise that established Champagne as an appellation. With the revolt resulting in the establishment of Champagne as an appellation to counter fraudulent production, Champagne Collet was founded in 1921.
In the glass, yellow gold with a fine string of bubbles. Fragrances of white flowers and citrus, stone fruit and small delicate touches of spices, cumin, anise with pastry crust. A fresh wine with a balanced texture, the palate presents stone fruit - quince, pear, apple - and candied lemon zest. A straightforward and refined wine, with a wonderful persistence in the mouth, crunchy like a thin caramel biscuit."
