Description

2008, a very big year for Champagne!
For this vintage, the house wanted to offer “A wine of expression, rich in emotions, with incomparable brilliance”.

During vinification, very few sulphites were added, 4% of the wines are aged in wood for 9 months for a vinous structure, and aged on lees for more than 10 years (Brut dosage at 3 g/l).

A rich, complex and subtly aromatic wine.
The palate is tense and mineral, characterized by a lively attack in a
silky vinosity, finely structured and woody. A nice freshness on the finish.
