The brilliant body is pale yellow with silver highlights, a sign of the high proportion of exceptional Chardonnays. The bubbles are fi ne and form a persistent and delicately creamy ring of foam. The wine is subtle and fresh on the nose. The initial mineral aromas quickly give way to green and then fl oral notes with the fragrance of elderfl owers and spicy cinnamon undertones. The entry onto the palate is clean and lively, dominated by very exceedingly fresh citrus notes. These segue into much fuller, rounder and silkier fl avours where white peaches in syrup predominate. The finish is rich, lingering and bursting with fl avour. Prélude Grands Crus is a joyous blend of fi nesse and complexity. Its balance of freshness and aromatic expression is outstanding.

Critic reviews
The Wine Front – Toasty with plenty of bready complexity and powerful lemon and mixed nut flavour. Intense acidity and focus–strong and firm—then a long briny/mineral finish. Muscular but graceful. So much fizz packed into one bottle, though it’s still easy to drink. Terrific. 5 December 2012
James Suckling – A tighter and firmer, dry Champagne with a compact, minerally palate. Lovely, fine and creamy bead. Soft and round mid-palate with lemon, lemon-curd and green-apple flavors. Fresh finish. Drink now. 2 September 2019
Decanter – Opulent tropical and stone fruit interweaves with lush hazelnut and creamy brioche which spills out onto the silky palate. Poised and fresh with an expansive mousse.
