Serving and food pairings
Serve between 10 and 12°C in a tulip-shaped glass, allowing its aromatic complexity, vinous character and enveloping texture to express themselves fully.
Its remarkable gastronomic versatility is one of the defining qualities of this Special Club 2018. Its breadth pairs beautifully with seared scallops, Jerusalem artichoke cream and toasted hazelnuts, where the sweetness of the shellfish and the creamy texture of the dish meet the freshness and savoury character of the Champagne.
It is equally compelling with roast monkfish, porcini mushrooms and thyme, which highlight its depth and subtle earthy nuances. For a meat pairing, roast guinea fowl with mushrooms complements the wine’s vinous character and enveloping texture beautifully. With cheese, a mature Robiola provides an elegant, creamy pairing, balanced by the freshness and salinity of the Champagne.

Spécial Club 2018
Grongnet
A Special Club 2018 of remarkable breadth and personality, in which the vinous character of Pinot Noir meets the finesse of Chardonnay. Generous and profound, it seduces with its cashmere-like texture, aromatic complexity and a mineral character that brings balance and precision to the richness of the wine.
A Champagne with a distinctly gastronomic character and remarkable versatility, equally at ease with shellfish and fish as it is with white meats, mushrooms and creamy cheeses.

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.
