Carte d'Or Brut

80% Meunier (5% oak barrels) - 12% Chardonnay - 8% Pinot Noir

The wine is enlivened by fine, lively bubbles that nourish a delicate mousse. The fairly dense, satiny rim completes a rich and nuanced visual experience.

Fruity aromas: The initial aroma evokes notes of ginger, Reinette apple, and lemon peel. After aeration, these evolve into notes of peach skin, yellow grapefruit, and dried apricot. After a few minutes, aromas of quince compote, flint, jasmine, orange, mirabelle plum, and fig emerge.

Palate: The initial palate is smooth and fresh with creamy, integrated bubbles. The wine develops with a full, fleshy texture reminiscent of citrus, yellow, and white fruit. The finish is characterized by a clayey minerality that lends roundness, richness, and fruity juiciness. The fresh iodine and citrus aromas prolong the pleasure on the palate, leading to a subtly integrated and salty finish, whose tension enhances the fruity richness and flinty mineral aromas.

Carte d'Or - Brut: The perfect aperitif champagne, to share in all its simplicity. Generous, broad, and fresh are its key characteristics. Shellfish and citrus fruits in a buckwheat galette: a contrast created by the wine's ripe fruitiness.
