Heidsieck & Co Monopole Gold Top 2011

The nose is smoky, evolving towards notes of roasted, dry fruits, a hint of hazelnut, pastry and buttery aromas. From the first mouthfull we can confirm the character and power of this vintage cuvée. A very ample, round palate. A creamy Champagne. This wine has good length. The tasting ends with aromas of grilled almonds. The balance of this cuvée is maintained with a fine acidic presence which bestows freshness.

Balanced and pleasing, this cuvée lends intself to any tasting moment. It is also an excellent match for fish or shellfish prepared with a creamy sauce.
