FRANCE : CHAMPAGNE : VALLÉE DE LA MARNE
BIODYNAMIC : Pinot Meunier, Pinot Noir
MEDIUM-BODIED, RED APPLE, PEAR, CITRUS ZEST, WILD STRAWBERRY, HAZELNUT, PERSISTENT MOUSSE
Benoît Déhu is a grower in the Marne Valley whose family has farmed the same vineyards biodynamically for generations. “Initiation” is built around Pinot Meunier — the Marne's dominant but often undervalued grape — fermented and aged in oak before disgorgement at Extra Brut dosage. The result is textured, urgent, and mineral in a way that most non-vintage Champagne never achieves.
PAIRINGS :
| Oysters on the half shell | extra brut's precision cuts through brine; minerality echoes the sea |
| Smoked salmon with crème fraîche | acidity lifts the fat; red apple and citrus echo the cure |
| Aged Comté | hazelnut notes in the wine align with the nutty cheese; mousse cleanses between bites |
