Tasting Note: This is a more mature wine that shows a lovely complexity on the nose, while simultaneously filling the mouth with flavor. It is recommended to drink it in a larger wine glass such as a Bordeaux glass, so that one can fully appreciate how truly immense this champagne is. Serve at 10° C or 50° F, with crustaceans or fish. This wine is ideal for kicking off any meal.
This cuvée is uniquely reserved for wine professionals or exportation.
