100% Chardonnay, Dosage extra brut: 3g/l
This rare bottling made from a single plot of 50 year old vines Les Genettes in Grand Cru Ambonnay and aged in small oak barrels without malolactic fermentation to concentrate the richness and penetration. Like all Eric's around 60 wines from 6 hectares of vineyards, this one is also aged separately. Normally, Eric believes that by blending the differently prepared wines, he achieves greater complexity; here he consciously relies on one plot and one vintage. This champagne shows all the substance contained in its terroir. The role of the winemaker is limited to maintaining nature’s original harmony.
This champagne is precise and mineral. Light, fresh and mineral, it reflects the sensuality of the terroir. A Blanc de Blancs at the highest level.
