The 2016 vintage was characterised by particularly marked weather variations: spring was cool, wet and relatively late whereas summer was warm and dry with a heatwave in late August followed by dry and sunny weather over the harvest period which was highly beneficial to the ripening of the grapes.

Our Pinot noirs thrived in these dry, sunny conditions and the heat has given them an intensively fruity character and silky smooth texture. The Chardonnays are just as outstanding although more chiselled and saline in character.

Delivering all the maturity and intensity of a continental summer, the 2016 Rosé is a deep champagne carried by a radiant Pinot noir.

The ripe, juicy and slightly zesty fruit and citrus peel notes melt into the silky texture of a velvety and concentrated wine of great freshness. Its chalky and saline vibration, subtle hint of bitterness and crisp character complement a lovely sensation of softness, prolonged by a pure finish of infinite length.

Our champagnes undergo an extended period of ageing to allow them to gently evolve and mature, gaining in structure and depth, whilst developing highly nuanced aromas over the years.

You may enjoy them in the purity and chalky freshness of their youth or, if you appreciate more mature champagnes, wait a few more years or even decades for their candied, spicy notes to emerge. Our champagnes have a long future ahead of them and their destiny is in your hands!
