Visual analysis
This Cuvée Carpe Diem has an intense, luminous blond colour. It is adorned with fine and abundant bubbles which give it a shimmering appearance.
The whole is imbued with elegance and refinement.

Olfactory analysis
The first nose is immediately complex and aromatic. It evokes the end of summer with scents of candied orange, quince and acacia honey on a mineral background.
After a few moments, the seduction redoubled with the dried apricot, bergamot or spoon cookie. Then it's time for the appetizing and pastry notes. The expression combines aromas of youth and evolution in the cellar with great charm.
Seductive and well-structured, this is an exceptional cuvée due to its wonderful aromatic expression.

Taste analysis
The initial impression on the palate is rather firm and effervescent.
The wine then reveals all of its balance qualities. The acidity and vinosity are equivalent, while the dosage is held back.
Transcended by its aromas and texture, the wine is charming. Praline, nougat, nutmeg and biscuit are offered to us on a material full of tenderness.

The final
The finish is long roughly 8/2 of persistence and very sharp.
We retain this feeling of unity and purity felt throughout the tasting.

As a fifth-generation winegrower, my childhood memories are filled with vineyards,
where I roamed alongside my grandparents. After a brief interlude away from this
heritage, returning to it felt natural.
The most profound moment for me was witnessing the tears of pride in my
grandfather's eyes as I declared my commitment to continue our RM winemaking
tradition, which originated with his own grandfather.
Now, embracing my father's legacy gives me profound joy, coupled with the freedom
to cultivate and craft Champagnes according to my own vision and values.
