Vineyard

Selection of the finest terroirs of the Montagne de Reims, including :

• Grand Cru : Mailly-Champagne, Verzenay, Verzy

Blending

100% Pinot Noir.

Between 30% and 40% reserve wines are used to ensure roundness, complexity and consistency.

Vinification

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected, followed by a delicate pressing of whole bunches. Only the ‘cuvée’, from the first juices extracted, is used. The alcoholic fermentation is carried out in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats at a low temperature (17°C-20°C) to preserve the finesse of the aromas. Subsequently, the malolactic fermentation occurs, imparting balance and roundness to the wine. The secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle in our cellars, 15 metres underground, at a constant temperature of 11°C — ideal conditions for the development of fine, persistent bubbles and a lasting effervescence.

The wines are aged for approximately 5 years in cellars and benefit from an additional resting period of several months after disgorgement.

Tasting

Colour : A delicate hue with golden reflections.

Nose : Rich and complex, the nose reveals aromas of dried fruits with toasted and pastry notes.

Palate : The sweetness of the fruit blends with its crispness. Flavours of red fruits evolve into compote-like notes. A refined balance of structure, length, and vivacity.

Dosage: 5 g/l
