Description

An elegant and expressive grower Champagne that showcases the refined power of 100% Pinot Noir from Écueil. On the nose, it opens with aromas of red apple skin, wild strawberries, crushed chalk, and a hint of white pepper, all wrapped in a subtle brioche note. The palate is focused and textured, with a fine mousse and a delicate oxidative edge that adds depth. There’s a beautiful balance between ripe red fruit, saline minerality, and a firm backbone of acidity, leading to a long, persistent finish. This Champagne’s structure and savory complexity make it a superb pairing with tuna tartare topped with sesame and citrus zest, where the wine’s tension and mineral drive complement the richness of the fish and the umami from the seasoning.
