“Very beautiful and sophisticated aromas of bread dough and sliced apple tart. Full-bodied with layers of fruit, underlying chalk and crushed seashells. Lovely apples and pears at the end, dry and integrated with the fruitiness. Blend of 50% chardonnay and 50% pinot noir. Dosage 3 g/L. Drink now. 2,000 magnums.” – James Suckling
“Bright light-yellow colour. Very fresh for its years, with a superb bouquet of bath salts, minerally/chalky, with traces of nettles, white pepper and parsnip. Voluminus flavour, freshness and length. Refined and tremendously persistent. Wonderful wine. (50/50 chardonnay / pinot noir. Disgorged in 2024 after 8 years on lees. 3 g/l dosage. Bottled only in magnums and jeroboams, for the house’s bicentenary).” – Huon Hooke, The Real Review
Tasting Note: The colour is light gold. This golden hue, bright and refined, testifies to the quality and maturity of the wine, promising a tasting rich in discoveries. A true celebration, the nose shows great complexity. Generous and opulent, it fully expresses our terroir through its minerality, thanks to the chalky notes. With a little time in glass, there is a delicate bouquet of spring flowers mingled with gourmet aromas of prunes. There is a sense of great richness, its texture coating the palate with touches of honey. Then notes of raspberries, blackcurrants, citrus fruits and tropical fruits, with a predominance of lychees, are revealed and blended with subtle floral fragrances of lilac and lily. Finally, enhanced by delicate menthol notes, this champagne offers remarkable length in the mouth.
Winemaking Notes: We have selected the finest chardonnays from the vineyards of Cumières (premier cru) and Chouilly (grand cru). The pinot noir comes from the grand cru vineyards of Ambonnay. Aged 96 months in our historic cellars. Dosage 3.0g/L (extra brut).
