2007 Technical Specifications
Grape Varieties 90% Chardonnay; 10% Pinot Noir
Region Champagne
Production Details Hervé Deschamps created this single-vintage, limited spring release from selected Grand Cru Chardonnay chosen for elegance, freshness and vivacity, with Pinot Noir contributing its pink, peach-tinged colour. A separate exact-vintage tasting record says the Pinot Noir was macerated on its skins.
Tasting Notes Spring-like bouquet led by elderflower, with citrus, yuzu, cherry, sour cherry and yellow-fleshed fruit; fresh, lively attack followed by roundness. Paolo Baracchino additionally described ripe peach, iodine and helichrysum/licorice, fine bubbles, savoury minerality and a long, slightly bitter ripe-peach finish.
Food Pairing Sea-bass carpaccio with citrus; crab with calendula flowers; zucchini maki with Brousse cheese, lime, Morello cherries and spiced salt; or citrus-based desserts.
