Visual analysis 

L’Authentique 2008 features a fairly deep pale yellow colour. It is discreetly animated by shy, fine and regular bubbles. The visual presentation announces matter and energy.

Olfactory analysis

The first nose immediately takes us on a journey. We perceive vanilla, very ripe pineapple, some exotic fruits too. Then the northern origins, manifest themselves with accents of spring honey, pear, butter. Later it’s the turn of white pepper and citrus zest to invoke our olfactory memory. It is a complex nose, the expression of a wine that seems to have a lot to say.

Taste analysis 

The initial impact on the palate is both complex and sharp. We simultaneously perceive the acidity, the effervescence and the tannins of the Cuvée. The start is virile and opens on a robust, tense, very structured mouth. The consistency of the wine generates a feeling of concentration, with a tight, dense texture. This material, enhanced by aging in oak barrels, tends to dominate the effervescence and dosage to offer a Burgundian character to the whole.

The final 

The finish is complex and sapid. It turns out to be mineral, acidic, tannic, effervescent, slightly sweet and bitter ... Incredibly baroque and inviting to eat.
