Aguila – Brut NV – Crémant de Limoux

Pale straw colour, quite youthful with a green hue. Rather tiny bubbles here. So quite fine mousse. I really like the nose, good purity. Mineral notion with barely ripe stone fruit, ripe lemon, some almond and nuts. In the direction of really fine Chardonnay I would say. Palate is light towards medium bodied. Youthful but with a good zest, good grip. The think the fruit is pleasurable with hints of barely ripe pear and stone fruit, with lemon. Quite light and gentle mousse adding a certain creaminess to the texture. Bright freshness. Medium towards long finish. Good drinkability today. Good purity of fruit and plenty of pleasure.
