Written Notes

Bright, yellow colour. Expressive nose with multilayered and refined toasty notes – smoky, buttery, and lovely hints of honey aromas. Dry, intense and concentrated palate with creamy texture. Vivid and complex mouthfeel with lingering tasty brioche finish. Refined and harmonious champagne made of blend of 2008 and 2009 chardonnay harvests from 0.5 hectare Les Aventures vineyard plot from Chouilly. Drinking well now but will evolve well to 2028-2035. Gastronomic champagne that serves perfectly with fried Guinea fowl, shallots and truffles. JL 92p (Oct 2021)
