The entire batch is then racked and blended in July for a short period of aging on the lees of approximately 6 months.

"The blending of Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc grape varieties gives rise to a beautiful, elegant, and well-balanced Blanc de Blancs Champagne. It reveals a brioche nose with notes of almond, lemon, candied orange, and a subtle hint of stone fruit. The bead is fine, and the presence of Pinot Blanc—even in a small proportion—endows this cuvée with a fleshy, crisp texture. A absolute delight!"
