Le champagne est cristallin et limpide, la bulle est fine et persistante, le cordon ou collerette présente une bonne tenue, la vivacité des bulles du chapelet témoigne d’un Champagne encore jeune. Le nez est frais et fringant avec des notes de citrons confits et de fleurs blanches délicates, il est subtil et aérien. La bouche est ample et svelte, longue et droite.

: I think "holds well" is fine. Mark's already got 'persistent' before that.

Thank you, you're right: two persistents + three bubbles in the same sentence is a heavy drink to swallow

In reply to Mark\'s note:
Yes, effervescence for \'la bulle\' is fine, appears in many descriptions (e.g. It has a brilliant aspect and effervescence is lively and long-lasting).
You can also throw in \'collerette\' next to \'bubble ring\'. It seems to be quite a popular term in English sites (bubble ring or \'collerette\').

: I wouldn't say appealing, it's more like long lasting.

You may well be right. It's not one of the things I notice in a champagne's behaviour :-}

This would apply for an older bottle, and I think this might be the case, is it?
