In the press

Lovely smoky brioche intensity on the nose. In the mouth it begins with cream, moving on to lemon meringue, then opens up further to lively acidity. Very complex, intense and concentrated. Superb potential to develop further.

Crisp apple and quince. Elegant and creamy style with understated fruit but an impressive almond croissant finish.

Tasting note

As delicately frivolous as a good party, this Champagne is scented with peaches and apricot jam on brioche, with peach and and light wood on the palate.

Viticulture

Les Folies de la Marquetterie is a blend of 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Noir. This cuvée is produced exclusively from grapes grown at the Folies, picked after the first “green” harvest, giving the wine optimum sweetness and aromatic maturity.

Vinification

Only wines from the first pressing are used, each plot being vinified in small volumes and certain lots in oak casks. Slow ageing for 3 years in bottles brings the flavours of this champagne to perfect harmony

Food Match

This well-structured, powerful wine is an ideal accompaniment to robust dishes such as roasts and fish in sauce.
