2015 was a year of hard contrasts in Champagne: a cold spring, then a long hot, dry spell that ran to the end of August, with harvest opening on 7 September. The hottest sites on bare chalk struggled, so chef de cave Vincent Chaperon's team sorted hard, and Pinot Noir came through stronger — the blend landed at 51% Pinot Noir, 49% Chardonnay, with full malolactic.
The house calls it dark and enigmatic at first, then broad and straight on the palate — roasted cocoa and lime blossom up front, peach, nectarine and citrus behind. Chaperon's own shorthand: "If 2013 is about the curve, 2015 is about the linear." Vinous 96 pts.
PAIRINGS :
| Caviar with blini | the house's first pick for the 2015; the mousse cuts the fat |
| King crab with brown butter | sweet shellfish against the peach and citrus core |
| Roast duck with orange | the Pinot half carries the meat, the citrus meets the glaze |
