Tasting notes

Yellow-green highlights characterise this attractive Chardonnay, made from a mix of grapes from the Côte des Blancs, Romery and Vitryat.
Its first nose unveils subtle aromas of white flowers and citrus fruit. This is then followed by a hint of gouache, which characterises the minerality of the chalk from these white terroirs. A hint of brioche ends this aromatic palette.
The palate is tense at first, but soon proves to be full-bodied (Avize) and chewy (Chouilly). Romery and Vitry add suppleness and fatness to this backbone. The delicate, tactile effervescence refreshes the palate. 

Ageing potential: Between 2 to 5 years at 15°C in the cellar

Food pairings

This champagne is first and foremost a wine, so we recommend that you serve it in a wine glass, between 8 and 10°C.
Our BLANC de BLANCS is a best-seller for aperitifs, wine & food pairings. You can pair it without hesitation with a seafood platter, carpaccio of sea bream, swimming turbot, as well as roast white meats and goat's cheeses. For desserts, it sublimates caramelised white fruit and stewed citrus fruit.
