Tasting notes
Appearance
Crystal clear pale gold colour with delicate glints marked by a nuanced patina of yellow and green. A persistent and fascinating effervescence, brimming with light.
Palate
A creamy sensation in the mouth with a beautifully chiselled finesse. Lovely refreshing balance with natural flavours (zest of citron, almond biscuit and white pepper). This powerful wine with a majestic typicity prolongs its finish towards an aromatic persistence of incredible length (flesh of sweet citrus fruits, cardamom and vanilla-flavoured cream puffs).
Aroma
The first expression is signed by an elegant, perfect and complex maturity, yellow fruits and citrus (candied mandarin, limoncello, conference pear). An aromatic profile of a sophisticated purity and a chalky, balanced and crystalline character (cedar and raw butter).
Tasting
The unique dimension of a great Blanc de Blancs, pure and intense, with a directness perfectly associated with its low dosage. Its potential and its balance express a remarkable finesse worthy of the most sophisticated food pairings (a casserole of whole calf sweetbread from Corrèze, a creamy shellfish risotto).

"Lovely, silky, super-long and gloriously even. It is a slender, willowy […]. Its flanks are glassy-smooth, and all of the acidity is reserved for the serious finish".
97/100 VINOUS - 2024
"Gorgeous Champagne. […] There's a feeling of reserve in the 2012 that is quite appealing. This edition is terrific, but it also needs time to be at its best."
96/100 DECANTER - 2024
"The 2012's already expressive aromatics in explosive charry, flinty energy and an extra degree of fluid freshness on the palate."
