Profile & sensory expression

The cuvée develops a profile marked by assertive freshness and chalky minerality, the signature of the chalky soils of the Côte des Blancs. The nose opens with delicate notes of citrus fruit (lemon zest, grapefruit), white flowers or lime blossom, sometimes accompanied by hints of brioche, hazelnut or fresh bread, evoking maturation on the lees and partial ageing in oak. The palate is characterised by fine, elegant bubbles and a balance between liveliness and depth, with fine mineral tension and a saline or chalky finish. Some expressions also evoke discreet fruity touches (pear, green apple). The result is a champagne that is light, precise and distinguished.
