Blending composed of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir classified Premier Cru and from vines of 50 years old age in Rilly-la-Montagne.

Its deep gold colour is defined by a fine and magnificent effervescence. These pearls create a white cordon on the surface. The powerful bouquet reveals aromas of black cherries, blood orange, Chinese aniseed and menthol. Shortly after, a more complex character is appearing with notes of pastry, cooked butter and passion fruit with discreet floral aromas. A remarkable attack develops on your palate with the right balance of freshness and richness. A hint of acidity is enhancing notes of butter and dry fruit. The aromatic persistence is underlined by a sour finish.

VINOUS 93 POINTS - "The 2018 Brut Grand Cellier d'Or is surprisingly vibrant for the year. Light hints of tropical fruit are the only clue this is a warm vintage. Otherwise, the 2018 retains terrific freshness. Lemon confit, mint, white flowers, salt and crushed rocks all run through the 2018. I would prefer to cellar this for a few years. Dosage is 7 grams per liter. Disgorged: July 2022."
