A highly regarded grower Champagne that emphasizes the pure, mineral expression of Chardonnay from the Coteaux Sud d’Épernay. Crafted by seventh-generation winemaker Aurélien Laherte, this "no dosage" (zero sugar added) cuvée is celebrated for its tension, energy, and transparency of terroir.
Nose: Displays a focused bouquet of citrus zest, green apple, and white flowers, often with mineral undertones of wet stones, flint, or smoke.
Palate: Characterized by its "laser-sharp" acidity and chalky minerality. You may find flavors of Meyer lemon, pear, and subtle hints of toasted nuts or brioche from the time spent on lees.
Texture: Despite its dryness, the use of oak-aged reserve wines and partial malolactic fermentation provides a creamy, integrated mousse and a surprisingly broad mid-palate.
Composition: 100% Chardonnay sourced from 35-year-old vines in the best parcels of Epernay.
Winemaking: A significant portion (typically 50%) consists of reserve wines aged in oak barrels to add depth and texture.
Zero Dosage: As a "Brut Nature," no sugar is added during disgorgement, resulting in a bone-dry profile.
Farming: Produced using organic and biodynamic practices
Food Pairings:
Seafood: Perfect with oysters, sushi, or fried fish and chips.
Salads: Pairs well with a classic chicken Caesar salad (especially with anchovies).
Cheese: Complements soft, creamy cheeses that benefit from a high-acid contrast
