TCJ assessment

A complex and distinctly vinous Blanc de Blancs, with considerably more depth than its freshness initially suggests. The Chardonnay has presence and texture, giving the wine a broad and layered expression while maintaining definition.

The cuvée brings together Chardonnay from several parcels across Montgueux and three consecutive vintages, an approach that contributes to its layered character. There is substance on the palate, but also enough freshness and mineral definition to keep the wine precise.

The finish is particularly impressive, long and persistent, reinforcing the sense of complexity that runs through the wine. A Champagne with a strongly vinous personality, combining depth, texture and precision.
