100% Chardonnay, mult-vingage blend selected reserve vintages datting from 2000 to 2009. After bottling, it was aged on the yeast for 175 months before being disgorged in December of 2023 with a hedonistic dosage of 75 grams of sugar per liter.
WINE ADVOCATE 93 POINTS - "As I've written before, the NV Doux La Libertine is one of the finest examples of this largely forgotten and unfashionable category. Delivering aromas of dried fruits, peaches, warm biscuits, toasted nuts and honeycomb, it's a medium to full-bodied, fleshy, flamboyantly sweet Champagne of notable interest and complexity. It would work well with a wide range of desserts to conclude a meal. It's a blend of reserve wines back to 2000, omitting a few of the less favorable vintages in the interim."
