Timeline of the bottle
Production timeline
Organic is not only about what is left out. It is about what is kept in: the soil, the climate, the ground built up over generations. This cuvée comes from a meticulous selection of grapes across the whole AOC Champagne area, all grown the organic way. A model of non-vintage Brut, joining Champagne know-how to respect for the terroir.
Main harvest
Black grape varieties, 80% of the blend: Pinot Noir and Meunier, hand-picked from organic-certified plots across AOC Champagne, selected for their organic typicity and harvested to the organic-farming specification.
Reserve wines
Chardonnay (20%): minority selection bringing freshness and mineral tension to the final blend.
Tasting

A fine and delicate cuvée, authentic expression of the Champagne terroir under organic farming.
Optimal serving temperature
6 to 8 °C (43 to 46 °F)
Colour
Luminous golden yellow, with fine and lively bubbles
Nose
Floral (violet and lime), evolving on more vegetal hints of fern and truffle.
Taste
Light and subtle. Notes of citrus and exotic fruits evolving on a delicate touch of honey and brioche bread.
Fine cuisine pairings
At the aperitif above all, where its true nature shows: organic crudités, light tapas. It also carries through a full meal, alongside white poultry or a fish in citrus sauce.
