Wine Composition Pinot Noir (45%), Chardonnay (30%) and Pinot Meunier (25%). Tasting Notes Pale gold in color with a fine mousse, the wine is extremely aromatic on the nose. On the palate, it is quite dry and shows great finesse and complexity. Pinot Noir gives the wine richness and a long finish while Chardonnay, from the finest soils of the Cote des Blancs, adds delicacy, liveliness and freshness. Pinot Meunier, mainly from the Marne Valley, gives the wine an appealing fruitiness.
The connoisseur will be able to appreciate the fruity notes and all the delicate aromas which are not masked by sugar. It is a real achievement to be able to offer such a wine, as only perfect wines can be presented pure in the natural state.
Food Pairing
Ideal as an aperitif, it will pair perfectly with sea food, caviar, scallops, lobster, crab, salmon. Sushis and Asian food are also a very good pairing.
Cheeses: Soft and mouldy cheeses such as Boursault, Coulommiers, Chaource, Brie, Brillat-Savarin.
Desserts: Major parings include crumble with red berries or figs, almond paste, frangipane pastries such as the French galette des rois.
Zero Dosage can also be enjoyed after dinner with a cigar ... and for ladies, it is also the perfect diet champagne!

Tasting Notes Slightly blush-like colour. Faintest touch towards pink colour. Young mousse. A little aggressive. Aromatic approach in the nose. Appley, hints of biscuits, autolysis. Fullbodied, young and concentrated Champagne in the mouth. Appley fruit. Biscuits. Again highly aromatic Champagne. Citrus and minerality. Young and unevolved. Fine acidity and length. Citrusy finish. Everything is in its right place. Give it another 3-4 years to open up. Very good.

Tasting Notes The levels of minerality and mouth filling texture crank up a notch here, elongating and drawing the wine out with lingering persistence. A wine of tremendous, coiled-up energy, in a finely-honed style built around beautifully structured chardonnay blended from across the Cotes des Blancs - no mean feat, with four-fifths of the blend from the lesser 2005 vintage.
Tasting Notes: Developed, quite rich nose, buttery, creamy, bready notes, promising much. Rich, creamy textured, with good freshness on the palate.
Food Pairing: Delicious to drink on its own, or pair with seafood, salads, or lightly flavoured meals.
