The plot is east-facing and located at about 150 meters above sea level, on clay-limestone and chalky soils, conditions that favor a pronounced mineral imprint and a well-defined freshness. Manual harvesting, fractional pressing, and fermentation in stainless steel and oak barrels contribute to building a complex yet always clear profile, while the 39 months of aging on the lees add depth and creaminess to the overall texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a \u003cstrong\u003epale and brilliant gold color\u003c\/strong\u003e.

On the palate, it shows power and structure, yet remains lifted thanks to incisive freshness and vibrant minerality. The sip is elegant, tense, with a long and clean finish, capable of leaving a pleasant sensation of finesse and persistence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eChampagne Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs\u003c\/strong\u003e pairs naturally with seafood, oysters, fish tartare, delicate carpaccios, and shellfish.
