Champagne Collard-Picard Cuvée Prestige Essentiel 2012 Magnum

Champagne Collard-Picard Cuvée Prestige Essentiel 2012 Magnum is a refined vintage Champagne that captures the character of a great year with precision and depth. Made from 50% Chardonnay, 25% Pinot Meunier, and 25% Pinot Noir, it is crafted from selected parcels in Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, and the Marne Valley, with only the coeur de cuvée used and no dosage added, allowing the vintage to speak with complete clarity. Over 12 years of bottle ageing have added remarkable complexity to a Champagne that remains beautifully dry, structured, and terroir-driven.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, Essentiel 2012 shows a luminous golden color with a lively, energetic sheen. The nose opens with layered aromas of brioche, toasted nuts, citrus, pear, and ripe stone fruit, followed by subtle hints of chalk and pastry from long ageing. On the palate, it is dry, focused, and precise, balancing golden fruit with toasted bread, delicate spice, and a creamy mousse. The finish is long, straight, and distinctly mineral, with the kind of tension that gives the wine both elegance and power. Thanks to its structure and extended ageing, it has the potential to continue developing gracefully over time, gaining even more nuance and depth.

Viininvalmistus
This cuvée comes from some of the house’s finest parcels in the Côte des Blancs and the Marne Valley, where chalk-rich soils and cool conditions help preserve freshness and tension. The grapes are harvested by hand, and only the coeur de cuvée is selected for the final blend. After fermentation, the wine spends eight months ageing in large oak barrels before more than 12 years of bottle maturation, and it is released as Brut Nature to preserve its pure, terroir-expressive style.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This Champagne is an excellent match for shellfish, oysters, lobster, and other seafood, as well as mature hard cheeses and refined gastronomic dishes where a dry, precise sparkling wine can elevate the plate. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C. Decanting is not necessary, but allowing the wine a few minutes in the glass can help reveal its full aromatic complexity.
