Production Details 100% Chardonnay from Côte des Blancs. 1990 vintage: Spring frosts and coulure during flowering reduced what would have been a sizeable crop. Ideal sunny conditions during harvest completed a summer which was hot and mostly dry. Wines have an opulence and complexity which is offset by terrific freshness. Aged on lees before late disgorgement in 2008/2009 season.
