A striking expression of Pinot Noir from Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, the 2019 Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut opens with aromas of ripe orchard fruits, wild berries and citrus peel, layered with hints of toasted brioche, almond and subtle spice. The palate is precise yet powerful, driven by a fine chalky minerality and vibrant acidity, with a low dosage that accentuates its purity and structure. There is impressive depth and tension, finishing long with notes of red apple, grapefruit zest and a delicate saline edge. A highly gastronomic Champagne, it pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, duck confit, grilled lobster, seared tuna, or richer dishes such as mushroom risotto and truffle-based cuisine.
