For more than 10 years, this champagne has matured and reached its peak on the lees. At the tasting, the sensations are amazing: we move away from the classic register with a nose close to perfume: sandalwood, musk, new leather, oriental spices, blond tobacco. On the palate, the tension is moderate but largely compensated by a rich and complex aroma, which gives this champagne the character of a great wine.
The Blanc de Meuniers cuvée (made with 100% Pinot Meunier) is a Champagne whose fleshy and mineral character offers varied gastronomic possibilities.
Krug Grande Cuvée 172ème Édition is a blend of 146 wines from 11 different years, with the youngest from 2016 and the oldest from 1998. After around seven years of maturation in the cellars, it acquires its unique character and elegance. Over 20 years of painstaking effort have gone into creating this edition of Krug Grande Cuvée.
Henri Giraud Hommage au Pinot Noir is, as its name suggests, a Blanc de Noirs Champagne made from the historic terroirs of the House in Aÿ. This grape variety brings a lot of roundness, complexity and elegance, enhanced by aging in small oak barrels.
Nicolas Maillart Rosé Grand Cru is a very technical cuvée that begins in the vineyard with the selection of plots of old Pinot Noir from the best terroirs of Bouzy. The estate uses the "saignee" method, i.e. the Pinot Noir grapes will macerate for a few hours to obtain the rosé color. Then, the Chardonnay is blended with the Pinot Noir to give freshness to this Cuvée.
Cuvée Rubis is a Champagne in homage to greediness with a blend of 90% Pinot Noir (including 15% red wine) and 10% Chardonnay from Premier Cru vines in the village of Rilly-la-Montagne. The wines spend 10 months aging in oak barrels to bring power and complexity.
“Les Ribauds” plot reveals an atypical expression of Pinot Meunier: richness and roundness with, in particular, notes of quite ripe red fruits. The silts of the soil soften the clays: we find a certain freshness as well as spicy notes.
The acidity of this great champagne has barely calmed down: under great freshness, it reveals delicately reduced notes of toast and mocha, then the wine opens up and evolves towards aromas of white truffle. This wine has a lot of breadth thanks to the Pinot Noir from Ambonnay and Dizy: in the mouth you can feel an imposing structure, with a lemony zest on the finish.
Chouilly is a vast terroir that can be distinguished in two parts. In the North, the Chardonnays are expressed with more roundness and amplitude. To the east, they have more minerality and tension. This champagne, which reflects the terroir as a whole, is not dosed to appreciate its mineral and citrus identity.
