CHAMPAGNE BRUT GRAND CRU BLANC DE BLANCS MILLESIME
GRAPE VARIETY
Chardonnay
TASTING NOTES
The first bottles of Millésime 2015 were disgorged in May 2022 after more than 6 years of aging on the lees, and this champagne already shows great potential. The beautiful spring of 2015 was followed by a rather hot early summer. Flowering ended in mid-June, followed by a hot, dry summer. The harvest began on September 7 with perfectly ripe grapes. The alcoholic and malolactic fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks. The light yellow robe is decorated with sparkling hints and is accompanied by a subtle perlage that forms a lasting cord. The nose is immediately striking with its marked hints of salted brioche and already whispers the main characteristics of the wine. A soft and fruity sip reveals sweet aromas of acacia flowers, pastry and almonds slowly giving way to a mineral and mentholated freshness that characterizes the finish. Full-bodied and well balanced, this champagne testifies to a superb vintage and suggests great aging potential. Full-bodied for a young vintage, this wine will be able to sublimate a crispy quail with raisins or even a well-cooked lamb shoulder.
