Wine and food pairing

This Champagne Blanc de Blancs 2006 has a clear, silvery colour with bright micro-bubbles. The nose reveals a combination of white fruit (apple, pear, peach), citrus fruit (lemon), toasted nuances (hazelnut, toast) and hints of butter and spice.

On the palate, the attack is precise and dense, with a fine mineral and saline tension. The texture is silky, balanced between fruity sweetness and lemony freshness, with a finish reminiscent of nougat and subtle sea salt.

Perfectly suited to a gastronomic offering, this vintage is a natural match for seafood: oily fish (salmon, tuna), shellfish and soft cheeses.

Why choose this Champagne Duval-Leroy?

Unique terroir: historic plot with eastern exposure in Vertus, guaranteeing concentration and typical expression.
Partial vinification in wood: aromatic complexity and balance between mineral purity and round texture
Limited series: only ~15,888 bottles produced
High critical acclaim: rated 91/100 and awarded Bronze and Gold medals at the International Wine Challenge and IWSC
