Champagne Collard-Picard Archives Millésimée 2002

Champagne Collard-Picard Archives Millésimée 2002 is the top wine in Olivier Collard and Caroline Picard’s range, and a bottle that sits comfortably among Champagne’s elite. Made from Grand Cru fruit and crafted with a very low dosage, it offers a refined, dry style that feels both luxurious and beautifully precise. Far from a name-driven release, this is a serious vintage Champagne with impressive depth and clear aging potential.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this 2002 vintage Champagne shows a bright, polished profile with a sense of concentration and energy. The nose opens with fresh apple and pear, followed by layers of brioche, caramel, toasted almond, and a subtle earthy note that adds complexity and maturity. On the palate, it is generous and textured, yet held in check by a sleek, dry finish and fine mousse. The balance of Chardonnay’s finesse and Pinot Noir’s structure gives the wine real presence, while the low dosage keeps everything focused and elegant. It is already impressive now, but it should continue to gain further nuance and breadth with time in bottle.

Viininvalmistus
This cuvée is composed of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir, sourced entirely from Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte des Blancs. The grapes are harvested from top sites that bring both tension and purity, giving the wine its distinctive mineral-backed elegance. Vinification includes no malolactic fermentation and no filtration, with 30 months of aging in oak barrels and a very low dosage of 2 g/l to preserve precision and dryness.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This is a Champagne built for the table, not just the aperitif, and it pairs especially well with seafood, shellfish, lobster, roast chicken, risotto with mushrooms, and richer dishes featuring cream or butter. Serve it slightly chilled, ideally around 10-12°C, in large white wine glasses to allow the aromas to open fully. Decanting is not essential, but a little air in the glass will help reveal its complexity.
