Francoise Bedel Cuvee Brut (NV)
375mL / France
Visual impression : It pleases the eye with its abundant and creamy foam when served. A lively effervescence enhances the length and persistence of its rim ring. Brilliant golden in color, it has striking clarity.
Nose : A pleasing round and fruity bouquet marries yellow fruits (apricots and peaches), and dried fruits (raisins and dried apricots). When swirled the rich alcohol notes of cognac and Armagnac waft up.
Palate : The pleasingly supple palate of dried fruit notes reflects the bouquet. The finish shines with maturity and freshness. This last lends it a pleasant thirst-quenching quality.
