Sight : Pale golden colour. Fine persistent bubbles. Smell : Delicate nose, very fresh, lovely complexity. Taste : Fresh and supple on the palate. The first impression is of fresh green apples with a hint of white flowers and hazelnuts. Well balanced and good length.

The Champagne House Forget-Brimont is in Ludes, a small village with Premier Cru classification in the heart of Montagne de Reims, one of the most prestigious terroirs in the Champagne region.
