Description

Vintage 2016

An exceptional vintage champagne, crafted from the finest selection of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from the outstanding 2013 harvest. Aged to perfection, this champagne embodies depth, complexity, and refined elegance.

Nose

A beautifully matured bouquet of baked apples, dried apricots, and citrus peel, enriched with notes of toasted hazelnuts, honey, and delicate brioche.

Palate

A rich and layered profile, offering flavors of candied citrus, roasted almonds, and hints of vanilla. The silky mousse and well-integrated acidity lead to a long, complex finish with a touch of minerality.

Truffle Risotto with Parmesan

A creamy, decadent truffle risotto pairs exquisitely with the depth and complexity of this vintage champagne. The aromatic earthiness of black truffle enhances the wine’s aged character, while the silky, buttery texture of the risotto mirrors the champagne’s smooth mousse. Aged Parmesan shavings add a nutty richness that complements the wine’s toasted hazelnut and brioche notes, while a hint of fresh thyme or chives provides a finishing touch of herbal freshness.
