Our Brut Millesime 2009 is a vintage Champagne produced exclusively from the finest pressings of equal parts Chardonnay and Pinot Noir and aged at length in our cellars. THe 2009 harvest produced wines whose freshness, liveliness and perfectly melting tartness offer the prospect of excellent aging. The nose reflects smooth fruity tones of Williams Pears, Greengages, cherry plums, and a hint of white flowers. On the palate, its fruitiness, vinosity and richness prevail. The full bodied finish is amrked by lightly honeyed notes.
