This exceptional champagne emerges from five carefully selected parcels, totaling two hectares of vineyard land planted between 1951 and 1987 on slopes of remarkable southeastern exposure, where pristine white chalk lies tantalizingly close to the surface—a geological gift that imparts distinctive mineral character to every bottle. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this vintage showcases the winemaker's commitment to purity and precision. The fruit undergoes thoughtful vinification across both oak and stainless steel vessels, followed by malolactic fermentation that adds complexity and textural richness. The minimal dosage—applied with restraint or omitted entirely—allows the wine's natural character to shine brilliantly, delivering a bone-dry, savory profile that speaks to the chalky minerality of its origin. Upon tasting, expect to discover captivating notes of lemon, pear, and distinctive chalk minerality in its youthful expression. With time, this wine evolves gracefully, developing sophisticated layers of bergamot, delicate herbal infusions, candied citrus, and ethereal meringue. The powerful yet refined texture provides an elegant framework, making this a champagne of remarkable longevity and contemplative depth—a true collector's choice for those who appreciate the finest expressions of Grand Cru Chardonnay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003eVinification:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e Fermented and aged in traditional oak casks (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem class=\"eujQNb\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003etonneaux\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e) to add vinous texture while preserving vertical acidity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003eMalolactic Fermentation:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e Fully completed, softening the aggressive young edges and accentuating creaminess and savory depth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003eAging \u0026amp; Dosage:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e Bottled without fining or filtering, aged under natural cork prior to disgorgement, and finished as an Extra Brut \/ zero-to-low dosage style to highlight absolute purity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003eAroma:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e Piercing lime peel, crisp green pear, and lemon curd interwoven with wet chalk, oyster shell, subtle smoke, and toasted brioche.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"iNqyIf\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"rQesXe MPyX\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003ePalate:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c!--TgQPHd|||[]--\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"yADgie\"\u003e Taut, electric acidity with a creamy, expansive mid-palate texture.
