GRAND CRU - BLANC DE BLANCS - EXTRA-BRUT - Millésime 2013
The cellar master’s notes
“This Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru is a unique experience born of the deep roots of our Chardonnays, rooted in the chalky subsoils of Chouilly. After more than 11 years of ageing on the lees, this champagne is immersed in the sea for 12 months at a depth of 60 meters. Through this cuvée, you discover the secret and mysterious world of submerged champagnes, a sensory odyssey where the iodised minerality of our terroir is magnified.”
