Tasting notes
The NV Champagne Premier Cru Selection Brut is a breath of fresh air, pouring a bright straw color with a light copper tinge. This release is a blend of 70% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay, with 45% from 2021, 25% from 2020, and the remainder from 2019. Approachable and inviting, it was raised without oak and is a total charmer, with notes of fresh orchard fruit, citrus sherbet, fresh almond, and powdery flowers. Medium-bodied, it has a silky, chalky texture, a rounded mousse, and a delightful, fruity yet refreshing finish. Drink over the coming 5–7 years. Disgorged in January 2025 with 6.5 grams per liter dosage.

Bright silver/straw-colored and coming from 50-year-old vines, the NV Champagne 1er Cru Selection Brut is made from 70% Pinot Noir and the rest Chardonnay, with 60% from the 2020 vintage and reserve wine from 2019 and 2018. The nose takes on more salinity but remains fresh, with notes of delicate flint, wet stones, honeydew melon, and raspberries. Medium-bodied, juicy, and inviting, with lovely purity and freshness through the palate, it has a pillowy mousse, a lovely, rounded texture, and some very pleasing pastry notes. It is quite appealing now and should continue to offer a wide window of enjoyment over the coming 8-10 years. 6 grams per liter dosage.
