"Strong, fine mousse Intensely minerally aromas of citrus skin, mint and stone. Brisk, vibrant and penetrating but quite refined, with powerful extract and minerality. Very dry, subtle and spicy on the slow-building, very long back end, with strong saline and oyster shell notes. A no-dosage Champagne with superb precision and grip."

The northerly region that gives its name to the world's most celebrated sparkling wine, made by secondary fermentation in bottle from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Chalky soils and a cool climate yield wines of finesse and longevity.
The sole appellation for true Champagne, producing sparkling wines of finesse and complexity by traditional method from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
