It can be paired with "maritime" dishes and tender textures. Try toast with salmon cream or an orange braised endive pie, a pizza topped with tomato, artichoke and mozzarella or a goat cheese that is not overdone.
For serving, 8 degrees and a slender flute will be perfect.
The effervescence is lively and abundant and creates a magnificent halo on the surface.
Yellow flowers, almonds, pollen, grapefruit and lemon combine to produce the effect typical of the Chardonnay grape variety in this region (Cuis Premier Cru - Côte des Blancs). Bread and iodine are the base notes.
The whole is particularly summery. With aeration, it is enriched with scents of nougat and honey.
It is an elegant nose, emblematic of Chardonnay, perfectly reflecting its terroir of birth.
Then the wine quickly becomes smooth and delicate.
The effervescence becomes creamy with the small dosage that accompanies its balance and brings volume and savouriness to the scents of iodine and brioche. The nice acidity sets the pace and makes perception more fluid.
The whole produces a fresh, fluid and delicate texture, in a word, silky.
The final impression is salty-sweet.

A magnificent example of a Blanc de Blancs from the Côte des Blancs, that offers us the heart of its splendid terroir.
I am a Champagne winegrower, blessed with what I believe to be the most exquisiteprofession on Earth, one I stumbled into as a child. My son William and daughterCaroline represent the sixth generation of our lineage, and it fills me with immensepride to witness them carry on our legacy.When I was 12, during the summer holidays, I used to go out with my father on hishigh-clearance tractor. I'd ride on the ploughs while he worked the soil, and I'd havethe joy of driving the tractor along the vineyard paths.Crafting new cuvées, nurturing the vines, witnessing the evolution and refinement ofthe wines, meticulously adjusting the dosage, orchestrating the blends, and warmlywelcoming customers - every aspect of this journey has captivated me endlessly.For me, the path of a winemaker was never a question; it was an innate calling. Mypassion for this craft will endure within me until my very last breath.
