50% Oiry, Chouilly and Avize, 50% Aÿ pinot noir; fully fermented and aged in old 205-litre oak barrels; aged 4 years on lees; 5g/L dosage; cork
Fermented and matured entirely in small, old barrels makes this an anomaly in the Hébrart style, yet upholding the DNA of the house and its grand cru terroirs. This is a spicy and characterful cuvée of pale-straw hue that accurately accomplishes its aspiration of expressing the two sides of the river, by con dently uniting the red berry fruit and g depth of Aÿ pinot noir, the white peach de nition of ripe northern Côte des Blancs chardonnay, and the spicy, toasty, coffee bean complexity of well-handled old barrel fermentation. Oak is sensitively handled, making more of a contribution in creamy, seamless texture than in avour or colour. The result has body, power and esh, tempered by ne phenolic grip, well-integrated acidity and invisible dosage on a long nish.
