Tasting Notes
Aroma
The intense Pinot noir bouquet includes notes of zesty
red fruit (redcurrants) and juicy, sun-drenched yellow fruit
(mirabelle plums, wild peaches). After aeration, the nose
evolves towards the more classic aromas of the Pinot noirs
grown in “La Montagne”: dried fruit and smoky notes
combined with a few zesty and spicy aromas (white pepper).
Appearance
Deep yellow hue with golden and slightly amber tints and
vigorous, lively bubbles.
Palate
The palate is dynamic, concentrated and powerful. The
texture is fleshy and vinous with a lovely acidity that
incorporates the freshness and concentration of the juice
with great ease. The structure is energetic, well-honed, fir
and almost classic. The fruity aromas gradually give way to
sweeter notes of chocolate (cocoa beans) and even delicate
roasted notes. The finish reveals concentrated roasted
and stewed fruit underpinned by saline, mouthwatering
flavours leaving a magnificent final sensation of lightness,
generosity and elegance.
Vintage Notes
An extraordinary vintage which is also the year in which
the Champagne region was recognised as a UNESCO
World Heritage Site! 2015 followed the continental trend
of that decade: a mild, wet winter and a hot, dry summer.
The summer, hot and sunny, brought record-breaking
temperatures and water stress. The second half of August
brought some very welcome rain, giving the vines some
much needed relief. Thanks to this fresh finish, the vines
produced juicy, ripe and concentrated grapes. Our
ambition for this vintage? To capture the concentration
which is the hallmark of this spectacular vintage!
