Color
Brilliant straw yellow with bright reflections and fine perlage.
Nose
On the nose, the 2018 Les Voranes by Bufadors is skeletal with a saline character. Zero fruit for the inclined tippler, instead wet blackboard chalk, a fresh sea breeze, oyster shells and petrichor, the scent of wet road after a warm summer rain. Add to this the typical autolysis notes of toasted toast with salted seaweed butter. A distinctive Mediterranean bubbly with a high fun factor.
Mouth
Les Voranes also shows its austere side on the palate. The aforementioned stony and salty aromas are joined by citrus zest, the perlage sets spicy accents and is also structurally in the sparse notch. With fine-grained phenolics, it is enormously mouth-watering with invigorating acidity and striking minerality. Challenging with bite, a sparkling wine for the advanced.
