Ephemeral cuvée by nature, this vintage is composed entirely of Pinot Meunier, a rare grape variety in the Côte des Bar (only 3% of the planted area) but represented at 20% on our estate.

 

This champagne will delight your guests and brighten up your evenings. The 100% Meunier composition, “made in Aube,” will surprise you with its fruity and aged character, wonderfully smooth.

Let yourself be carried away by its bewitching fruit and elegant tension, the hallmark of our expertise.

 

 

The 2016 vintage, marked by its small harvest and a cool, rainy start beginning of season, will charm you with its aromas of quince and toasted almonds.

 

A limited edition of 2 000 bottles, each bottle will have its own mosaic of bubbles, both literally and figuratively…

Tasting

Appearance

This champagne reveals a beautiful, intense golden yellow. Numerous strings of fine bubbles nourish a fine, persistent bead.

Nose

Complex and expressive, with wild strawberry jam combined with notes of quince jelly, plums in syrup, and mixed-flower honey. Upon aeration, a few touches of cocoa beans, gentian, and dried walnuts add complexity.

Taste

The opening is fleshy and rich, with a return of plums and quince jelly. The appropriate dosage allows the pleasant vinosity of the Meunier to express itself, combined with toasted almonds, wild raspberry jelly, and candied orange zest. The finish is refreshing


Food and Wine matching

To be enjoyed as an aperitif dinner, but also with a roast lamb fillet, with poultry in cream sauce or with a bloomy rind cheese such as Chaource.
