Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Appealing pale gold with delicate flashes of silver. The champagne gleams and glistens in tune with the effervescence. The bubbles are gossamer-fine and dynamic, suggesting a wine full of promise.
  • Nose: Fresh citrus and pear primary aromas, followed by salinity in the air – just like a sea breeze walk. As the wine begins to breathe, new, more pastry-like aromas, of fresh butter.
  • Palate: Impressively lively and elegant with delectable apricot aromas, fresh almond, and brioche.
    Upfront, full of vitality on the finish expressed through floral notes redolent of acacia and orange blossom.

Food Pairings

  • Excellent choice as an apéritif, Cuvée Spéciale 2018
  • Salty and mineral dishes scallops, King crab, prawns, John Dory or a plate of oysters. Also, a delight with spaghetti alle vongole
  • Main courses: ‘Mac & Cheese’, schnitzel or chicken breast with roast potatoes.

Frequently Asked Questions

At what temperature and how should champagne be served?

Depending on when you plan to drink it, the ideal temperature ranges from 7 to 12 degrees Celsius. For an aperitif, a cool temperature of between 7 and 8 degrees is best. For meals, a temperature between 10 and 12 degrees is fine.

Serving champagne: hold the bottle by the base and pour the champagne gently in several stages if necessary. Ideally, champagne should be served in a specific glass, such as our "Absolu" glass.

How long can champagne be stored?

Unlike some wines, champagne is not designed to age indefinitely. However, certain bottles can be kept for several years under optimal conditions.

  • Non-vintage champagne: This type of champagne is generally ready to drink as soon as it is purchased and can be kept for around 2 to 3 years without any loss of quality.
  • Vintage champagne: These champagnes, produced from a single exceptional harvest year, have a longer aging potential. They can be stored for 5 to 10 years, or even longer, depending on the initial aging time of the cuvée.

In both cases, it is important to consume the champagne before its quality begins to decline. The delicate aromas and effervescence can diminish over time, even under the best conditions.

How should I store my bottle of champagne?


To preserve your champagne quality, it is important to store it away from light, at a constant temperature (ideally between 10°C and 12°C). Storing bottles horizontally is ideal to ensure that the cork remains in contact with the liquid.

A well-ventilated cellar with a humidity level between 70% and 85% is the best option.
