Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a pale golden color with subtle green reflections and a fine, lively mousse. The nose is fresh and expressive, opening with citrus, white peach, and pear before evolving into more layered notes of almond, brioche, and a touch of spice. On the palate, this Champagne is concentrated and textural, with crisp acidity framing ripe apple and citrus fruit. Chardonnay brings brightness and mineral precision, while Pinot Noir adds structure and depth. The finish is long, saline, and harmonious, with lingering hints of honey, nuts, and toasted pastry. Thanks to the exceptional 2008 vintage and extended aging, it has excellent further cellaring potential.

Production
This cuvée is built primarily from Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards in Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs, two of Champagne’s most prized terroirs. The blend of 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir reflects a careful balance of elegance, tension, and structure, with the cooler 2008 season contributing freshness, high acidity, and strong aging capacity. The wine was vinified with the aim of preserving purity and complexity, then matured for more than a decade in the cellar before release.

Food & Serving
Ideal with refined dishes such as oysters, scallops, lobster, caviar, and seafood tartare, as well as truffle-based creations and delicate poultry dishes. Serve well chilled, around 8–10°C, to preserve freshness and aromatics. Decanting is not usually necessary, but allowing the wine a few minutes in the glass can help it раскры its full aromatic complexity.
