Description

Description:

A drier interpretation of non vintage Champagne, this cuvee is built around clarity and structure rather than softness. The extra brut style emphasises precision, allowing the natural profile of the base wines to show with minimal rounding. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier are combined to create balance between freshness, structure, and fruit. Chardonnay brings lift and citrus definition, Pinot Noir adds body, and Meunier contributes approachability without dominating the blend.

Magnum format (1.5 litres) supports a slower and more even evolution, helping the wine develop finer bubbles and a more integrated texture over time. Stainless steel is used during fermentation to preserve purity, keeping the fruit profile clean and well defined. Reserve wines are included to add depth and ensure consistency, though the overall style remains focused and restrained. Contact with the lees over time introduces subtle pastry and toasted notes, which sit beneath the primary citrus and orchard fruit. The emphasis remains on freshness and linearity rather than richness. The result is a Champagne that feels direct and controlled, with a clear structure and a crisp overall impression.

Tasting Notes
Nose:
Citrus, green apple, and light floral notes lead, with a faint hint of brioche in the background.

Palate:
Clean and precise, with lemon, crisp apple, and a fine mineral edge. The texture is light but defined, supported by tight bubbles.

Finish:
Long and dry, with lingering citrus and a sharp, mineral driven close. Crisp and refreshing.
