Tasting note
A glorious Chardonnay Champagne, vibrating with nectarines, pineapples and peaches, preceded by a delicate, defining spritz of citrus.
Viticulture
Blend of 100% Chardonnay from various years, 20-25% reserved from 2 previous years. Mainly Premiers Crus from Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims for aroma, with Sézannais for maturity and Vesle valley wines for freshness.
Vinification
The grapes are obviously hand picked and the fermentation takes place in temperature-regulated stainless steel fermenters. Full malolactic fermentation and a dosage of 9 g/l.
Food Match
A perfect champagne for aperitifs, particularly in spring and summer. It is an excellent accompaniment for seafood and shellfish; perfect with a sea bass or bream tartare. It would also be very good with seared sole.
