In 2014, an unusually mild, wet winter was followed by a dry, sunny spring. Summer was notable for abundant rainfall in July and August, two months of contrasting temperatures. September brought a return to normal, with favorable climatic conditions for harvest. The grapes were healthy and picked at the point of perfect ripeness. The resulting clear wines were powerful and complex with subtle overtones of fruit.
A pale gold, clear and luminous, like the rising sun. Delicate aromas of fruit – vine peach and poached pear – and linden and hawthorn blossom. Notes of juicy vine peach lend a fine texture, complemented by poached pear and tangy rhubarb. A combination of freshness, balance and tension. A rare and harmonious champagne.
Blend: 50% Chardonnay, 45% Pinot Noir, 5% Pinot Meunier
Complex nose of apricot stones, almonds, dried lemons, beeswax, chamomile and dried mushrooms. Sharp, structured and refined, with a medium to full body and very fine bubbles. Delicious savory, chalky elements with a mineral finish.
An elegant Champagne, with a creamy, finely meshed range of pastry cream, yellow apple and pear, almond biscotti, elderflower and preserved lemon flavors. Shows a rich underpinning of toast and smoke, with a frame of bright, delicate acidity. Long, plush finish. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
