The Blanc de Blancs 1er Cru was aged for at least five years in Collet's centuries-old limestone cellars.
Vivacious and light in texture, this 1er Cru delivers citrus notes of Sicilian lemon and lime, with hints of lemon tart on puff pastry. Nuances of white pepper, liquorice, and smoke add to the kaleidoscope of flavours. This is fresh, taut, complex, and full of finesse, with a beautifully long finish.

Winery | An assemblage of six Chardonnay parcels from the best Premiers and Grands Crus of the Champagne region. The three pillars of this Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru come from the three famous Grands Crus of Champagne Avize, Oger, and Chouilly. Avize is a rich Cru that brings power; Oger offers tenderness, and Chouilly imparts elegance and finesse to the blend. These limestone soils Crus are naturally present iodized notes and citrus aromas. The assemblage is balanced by blending Chardonnay from Villers Marmery, a mineral Cru with smoky notes that make the wine round and light, while fruit from the Crus of Vaudemange completes the assemblage. |
