This has a more fruit forward style versus the previous set. The nose shows a light citrus and mineral set. The palate has a bolder hit of stone fruits and a moderate acid base, wh ich is broader versus the last disgorgement. D&M Tasting NotesDomaine Charles Bove optimizes the intrinsic qualities of the different wines by blending them together in one single vat. Reserve stocks allow them to maintain a constant quality level. At the end of the bottling operation during which the wine is topped up with liqueur de tirage, the bottles, capped with metal temporary caps, are stored in the cave-like cellars. They are "laid" on "lathes", that is to say stored horizontally, with each layer separated from the previous one by a thin wooden lathe. Over a period of about 4 months, a second fermentation occurs.
