TASTING NOTES
Floral, mineral & red fruit notes. The palate is fresh and generous, playing with notes of spring berries, orange blossoms, crisp red apples, a touch of toasty oak, minerality & bright acidity. Voluptuous, opulent and a little austere, Eric Rodez's "Cuvée des Crayères" is an elegant sparkler for those looking for a more densely packed Champagne.
