Blanc the Noirs du Domaine Cédric Bouchard in the Aube area, named after a parcel of Pinot Noir planted in 1974. 1.5 hectare of organic vineyard in this lieu-dit called "Val Vilaine".
1st press juice only, hand harvested and crushed by foot, fermented using indigenous yeast. Bottled unfined and unfiltered. Aged for 16 months on the lees in stainless steel. Bottled with no dosage. Vintage 2013, dégorgement April 2015. A kind of marine freshness that slap gently on your nose. Certainly on the palate I would say: "perfect dosage" though, in fact there's no dosage at all but I didn't know yet. Wish to drink it down a full tank!

There is a sweet powdery smell of citrus and mineral success in this pretty young thing. Thanks for hanging tough 2013.

Kicking off movie night in style. Could use a few more years to soften up some of the acidity, but it is a fun and energetic champagne that re-energizes you after each sip. Disgorged April 2015.
