Description:
A grower Champagne known for depth and precision, this Extra Brut Grand Cru is predominantly Pinot Noir with Chardonnay for balance. Barrel fermentation and extended aging on the lees give the wine richness and complexity while maintaining a very low dosage, resulting in a dry, structured style. It shows layered fruit, citrus freshness, and pronounced chalky minerality with a refined mousse and long, elegant finish.
Food Pairing:
Roast chicken, aged cheeses, seafood, Asian-inspired dishes, white meats.
