Makuprofiili
In the glass, this Champagne shows a beautiful golden hue with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose is expressive and layered, opening with red berries such as cherry and raspberry, followed by subtle notes of citrus, spice, toasted almonds, brioche, and a mineral edge. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with a silky mousse and precise acidity that lift the ripe fruit and chalky mineral notes. The finish is long and persistent, with hints of star anise, mature fruit, and limestone. This is a Champagne with excellent aging potential, likely to gain further complexity over time.

Viininvalmistus
This cuvée comes from the Jolivettes parcel in Bouzy, a Grand Cru village known for its south-facing slopes and chalk-rich soils, which provide ideal ripening conditions and a marked mineral drive. The grapes were harvested by hand, as is customary for top Champagne sites, to preserve fruit integrity and ensure only the best Pinot Noir reached the cellar. Vinification is carried out with a strong emphasis on expressing the character of the vineyard and vintage, followed by extended lees aging to build texture, aromatic complexity, and depth.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This is a gastronomic Champagne that pairs beautifully with duck breast, quail, foie gras, and mature cheeses. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C to allow its layers of fruit, spice, and minerality to unfold. Decanting is not typically necessary, though allowing it a little time in the glass can reveal even more nuance.
