  • 750ml

From one of Bouzy's most respected grower-houses, this cuvée leans heavily on Pinot Noir with a smaller proportion of Chardonnay, sourced from vines averaging over fifty years old on the village's south-facing chalk and clay slopes. Fermented and aged in barrel for three years on lees with a low dosage, it shows tangerine zest, grapefruit and brioche on the nose, moving to a medium-to-full-bodied palate of citrus and stone fruit, vibrant acidity and a chalky finish. This is terroir-driven grower Champagne rather than house-blend polish - serious, precise, and built for those who already know the category. Best opened for a considered dinner rather than a toast.
