A balanced blend for an exceptional vintage

• 50% Chardonnay from the best Côte des Blancs crus: Chouilly, Oger, Cramant and Oiry, which bring freshness and minerality.
• 50% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims: Tours-sur-Marne, Aÿ, Tauxières, Verzenay and Ambonnay, for structure and aromatic richness.

After a harvest marked by ideal ripening thanks to the cool September weather, the grapes were used to create a cuvée of great precision. The champagne benefits from 7 years of cellar ageing, to reveal all its complexity and natural elegance.
