    Owner and history

    This cuvée is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes sourced from the Grand Cru vineyards of the prestigious Côte des Blancs, such as Avize, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, and Cramant. These limestone soils impart unparalleled minerality and finesse to this wine. The carefully selected vines benefit from optimal sun exposure, ensuring perfect grape ripeness.

    Vinification and aging

    This 2013 Blanc de Blancs Champagne is the result of meticulous winemaking. The grapes are harvested by hand and pressed delicately to extract only the heart of the cuvée, the finest juice. After bottling, the cuvée ages on its lees for 8 to 10 years. A portion (5%) is aged for 4 months in oak barrels, a third of which are renewed each year, imparting toasty notes to the final blend. Maturation in the cellar then continues for 10 years.
