GRAND CRU BLANC DE BLANCS MILLÉSIMÉ

Vintage 2000
A superbly surprising Vintage

BLEND : 100% Chardonnay Grand Cru from Chouilly in the Côte des Blancs.
An original single-cru, single-variety and single-year champagne which breaks with the tradition of blending champagnes.
The expression of an excellent year, the greatness of the Chardonnay, and the distinctiveness of one of the most famous areas in Champagne.
The aromas have reached their peak and express themselves with astonishingly youthful energy thanks to a dosage that never exceeds 4 g/l.

VISUAL ASPECT : Its brilliant colour and golden tints are characteristic of a mature Blanc de Blancs. Lively bubbles with plenty of finesse.

NOSE : Dominant blossom hints lead into more complex scents of citrus fruit and white peach.

ON THE PALATE : A lively, delicate attack is followed by a long, full-bodied finish. This wine of contrasts expresses all its complexity through a combination of smooth maturity and fine acidity endowing it with lots of freshness. This is a far from linear wine with a broad range of aromas sublimated by just the right dosage (4g/l).

SERVING SUGGESTIONS : As well as making a superb aperitif, it will bring out the very best in more delicate dishes such as a truffle-scented carpaccio of scallops, chicken in tarragon or veal with ginger. Serve at a temperature of 11-12 °C and in a carafe to appreciate its riches to the full.

Available in bottles and magnums.
