The 2008 vintage: This was the coldest year of the decade, marked by a late flowering followed by a remarkable late ripening of the berries. The grapes were in excellent health and had a fine, nuanced aromatic profile, promising superb potential. This straight, balanced vintage has forged wines of time, built for the future and whose aromas will reveal themselves in crescendo. 2008 is a vintage of patience and slow construction, distinguished and refined. To date, the wines are still in their youthful expression, delivering notes of dried flowers, with a caressing touch of bubbles, a straight and elegantly structured body.

To the eye

On the nose

Notes of white fruit, very fresh, dry almond and apricot. A slight touch of spice.

In the mouth

Frank and lush flavours, between redcurrant and citrus fruits. A revival of freshness and minerality carried by the Pinot Noirs, with a chalky signature and a hint of smokiness of extreme delicacy.

Food & champagne pairings

Palmes d'Or Brut can be enjoyed in its simplicity, there is no need for a pedestal: you have to immerse yourself in it, appreciate it for its own sake, just with a noble product such as truffles, parmesan cheese, foie gras au naturel, or salmon gravelax.

Ideal operating temperature

To appreciate all its finesse and aromas, champagne should be enjoyed chilled (but not iced). Depending on the cuvée, the ideal serving temperature is between 8 and 12°C.

Potential of keeping

Like all wines, champagne can be kept for varying lengths of time, depending on the type. Under optimal storage conditions, champagne can be kept for 1 to 2 years for Brut cuvées, and up to 4/5 years or even longer for vintage and prestige champagnes. Whatever happens, rest assured that you'll never be able to open your champagne too early, as the Champagne Houses only release their cuvées when they have reached perfect ripeness and are ready for immediate consumption.

Assembly :
Nearly 95% Grands Crus, equally divided between Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. An element of distinction: the Chardonnay of Montgueux, more exotic, fleshy and intense, which brings its aromatic patina and binder.

Vinification :
Dosage: The Cellar Master’s approach is to adapt the dosage level to each cuvée in order to sublimate its flavours and aromas and thus guarantee its unique style. Vinification: Resting in the cellar for almost ten years.
