A gift from the gods!

The year 2009 has been described by some as a "gift from the gods". Nature offered us an ideal summer : hot, dry and very sunny. Everything was in place to harvest great grapes.

The bunches were in an exceptional state of health, without any deterioration. The juices from this harvest had a natural balance close to perfection. Made from seven of the House's emblematic grands crus, this cuvée is anchored in history by the nobility of its origins.

Tasting notes

🏅 James Suckling 94 pts

Lovely transparency of fruit here with pear, grapefruit, peach, honey, honeysuckle and lemon-meringue pie. Creamy and layered with very fine bubbles. Balanced and creamy, with a long and supple finish. 50% of chardonnay and 50% pinot noir. 7g/L dosage. Disgorged January 2022. Delicious already. Drink now or hold.
