This Pinot Noir champagne is only vinified with white juice of black grapes, hence its name Blanc de Noirs. Its low sugar dosage makes it extra dry.
It is defined by a deep and unique structure. It shows golden, fine bubbles, an intense and vinous bouquet with red berries and spicy notes. Ample, full bodied and powerful in the mouth. You will be invaded by a sensation of freshness.
Its full bodied and power features make it a good match with sweetbread, giblet, bouchée à la reine and whites meats.
"A blend of grapes from the Aube and the Marne Valley, this ripe wine shows the structure of Pinot Noir. The fruit's richness balances the low dosage to give an almost bone-dry wine that is full, fruity and that could age further in bottle. - ROGER VOSS"

"Light yellow-bronze hue. Showing toasty lees aromas and a bright, energetic attack, the Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut offers good balance and complexity in a Champagne meant to be consumed with food. Ripe orchard fruit and brioche like flavors show on a plump, rich palate and persist on the finish. 100% Pinot Noir from the Marne and the Aube aged on the lees for 2+ years; 3-4 g/L RS"
