Production Details Full malolactic fermentation and 48 months on the lees. Recommended serving range is 7–9°C. The finished-wine record lists acidity as 5 g/L without specifying its analytical basis.

2018 Technical Specifications
Grape Varieties 100% Pinot Noir
Classification Aÿ Grand Cru; Blanc de Noirs; Extra Brut
Region Ay
Sites Aÿ Grand Cru: Cheuzelles, Longchamp, Pierre Robert, Pruche and Chauffour
Production Details Élevage in stainless steel and at least 36 months sur lattes. Skurnik’s FR-KMH-35-18 specification lists a November 2020 disgorgement with an unexplained “(5M)” notation. A later Vinous-reviewed bottle was disgorged on 10 October 2022 with 5 g/L dosage. These are retained as distinct release/bottle contexts rather than generalized vintage-wide dosage or disgorgement facts.
Tasting Notes Powerful and vibrant, with deep resonant Pinot fruit, incisive chalk, substantial weight and a structured finish (Vinous, 2023-11-01)
Critics Ratings 94/100 (Vinous, 2023-11-01)
