Description:
This wine is made from the best grapes grown in five of the most prestigious Grands Cru: Avize, Chouilly, Oger, Cramant and Aÿ.
Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats under temperature control between 16 and 20oC for one part and in barrels for the other part. Malolactic fermentation is done.
The champagne is aged for 5 years on the yeast in the crayères, where the temperature stays between 10 and 11°C.
Ratings:
95/100. “A strong graphite aroma leads into sumptuous flavours of tobacco, biscuit, citrus and walnut in this athletic champagne. It’s very vinous, a serious bubbly that can stand up to light meals and poultry dishes. Kaleidoscope finish.” Wine Spectator.
“Freshness and silky taste with aromas of spring and summer. Extremely fine bubbles. Elegant. Our favourite!” American Dream Wine.
