Alfred Basely Brut, Champagne, France NV Bodegas Alvear and is therefore only foundStraw colored, aromas of white flowers and citrus blackberries (lemon), enriched with some mineral notes, yeast and fresh bread. Creamy, biscuit accents and lightly buttered, with a hint of peach and stone fruits. The perceptible dosage in no way obscures the general freshness of the wine. The finish is quite long and clean. First class aperitif, dry and elegant.
