A gift from the gods! The year 2009 has been described by some as a "gift from the gods". Nature offered us an ideal summer : hot, dry and very sunny. Everything was in place to harvest great grapes. The bunches were in an exceptional state of health, without any deterioration. The juices from this harvest had a natural balance close to perfection. Made from seven of the House's emblematic grands crus, this cuvée is anchored in history by the nobility of its origins.

TASTING NOTES

On the eye: Pale gold with delicate golden hues, a sign of elegance and maturity. Exceptional brilliance. Very fine effervescence.

On the nose: The first notes are floral and sweet, reminiscent of honeysuckle and acacia flower. As it opens up, the wine reveals fruitier nuances of dried figs but also frangipane.

On the palate: Very straight and exceptionally mineral, the structure of the wine is velvety, reminiscent of Champagne chalk. The balance is perfect.

PAIRING

A champagne advantageously served with white meat, such as Bresse chicken with Combava.
