Where it comes from
This wine originates from the Bord de Marne region, near Trélou-sur-Marne. The area imparts a natural finesse to the grapes, enhanced in the vineyard by careful sustainable viticulture. Respect for the environment translates into a clean wine with great structural balance. Served at a temperature between 6 and 8°C, the Champagne expresses its full potential, revealing a captivating harmony with cheeses and a clear aptitude for ageing.
How it is produced
Production is based on the Traditional Method, with a long period of ageing on the lees. Its distinctive feature lies in the use of the Solera method in partially filled barrels, a process that enriches the base wine, providing continuity and depth. This technique defines the aromatic complexity, balancing the acidic tension with the rounded structure of reserve wines. The final result boasts remarkable ageing potential, ideal for cellaring over several years.
