100% Pinot Noir.
“Chaillots” plot planted in 1966.
Fermentation in 300l oak barrels (with the oak from Ecueil’s forest). No malolactic fermentation. Use of gravity exclusively, not filtered, not fined, natural cold stabilization. Aged for a minimum of 48 months on lees and 6 months after disgorgement.
A lovely balance of yellow plum fruit and an incisive, well-judged structure from the barrel fermentation. Open and long texture. Lily and smoke and the whiff of baking, with a fresh lemon-oil note on the end.
Type: Sparkling
Grape: Chardonnay
Country: France
Region: Champagne
