Bright, light and sharp with perfumed notes of citrus and yellow plums called mirabelles. Excellent as an aperitif, or paired with oysters and seafood.
A portion of this blend comes from the estate owned vineyards. The Chardonnay is from the Premiers Crus Villages Grauves and Vertus of the Cote des Blancs, bringing to the wine a freshness and balance of minerality. The Pinot Noir comes from the Montagne de Reims. A very low dosage of 4 g/l preserves the natural balance and acidity of this cuvee.

Based in Epernay, this Champagne house specializes in bone-dry Champagnes. Like this bottling, they need some time before the acidity calms down. This has the potential to be delicious, crisp, and full of a bright mineral texture and citrus fruitiness. Drink from 2018.
