Gold Medals awarded at the Vinalies Internationales competition 2021 and the 10th Challenge to the best French Wines, Beers & Spirits for Asia 2021. 17/20 Le Point magazine, December 2020.

Made with 50% GRAND CRU Pinot Noir grapes from Mailly and 50% PREMIER CRU Chardonnay grapes from Taissy. Some of the vines are over 40 years old! - i.e. lots of flavour!

A superb Champagne to add a touch of extra magic to all those special moments.

Pair with mushrooms, full-flavoured cold or grilled meats.

Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier: Complex and richly textured bouquet. Aromas of toasty autolysis, apple, white peach and strawberry. A chalk and seashell scent adds mineral and intrigue. Weighty, crisp and fruity with flavours of white fleshed tree and stone fruits, pith and citrus peel moments. The mousse is fine and precise carrying flavour as well as a silken texture, a seashell note returns as the mousse dies away. Delicious, complex, fresh, salivating and dry, a lovely wine with finesse, charm, weighty and integrity. Best drinking from 2022 through 2028. 95 Points (= "OUTSTANDING") Nov 2021
