This Premier Cru is a classic champagne made from grapes of the three historic varieties (with a clear predominance of meunier, a 60%) and a small contribution of traditional grapes such as arbanne, petit meslier and fromenteau. Approximately half of the wine dates from a 1998 solera, a key factor in understanding the origin of its complexity. The first fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks and malolactic fermentation is usually favored in order to ameliorate the acidity and allow the use of very small quantities of shipping liquor (6 g/l), thus enhancing the natural freshness of the grapes. After the second fermentation, the wine ages between 18 and 24 months on its lees in the bottle, gaining in complexity and refining with the magic of time.
Champagne made from a traditional blend of Meunier, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from 45% of solera reserve wine and 55% of an annual vintage.
