Its Great Growth feature speaks for itself: this is the Champagne of exception. Only remarkable years can produce a Comte de Marne cuvee. Listed terroirs combine with gastronomy. Rich and complex, its aromatic power requires refined dishes (Saint Jacques, Poularde chicken from Bresse, pan-fried Foie gras deglazed in champagne).
Aspect: Its mellow gold hue is a sign of its aging. Its mousse is delicate and its bubbles extremely fine.
Nose: A rich, intense nose with a wide aromatic palette encompassing yellow fruit, pear and Mirabel plum, almond, hazelnut and white blossom, such as acacia, with a honeyed, toasted touch.
Palate: The attack is forthright and elegant. It has a purity style that marries the structure and the texture of Pinot Noir with the balance and the freshness of Chardonnay. Perfect balance and immense length.

Blending fruit from grand cru vineyards in the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Blancs, this is a richly textured wine. It has structure as well as minerality, ripe white and citrus fruits, and good potential. Drink from 2021.
