This unique Champagne blends numerous indigenous varieties with multiple vintages, crafted through a solera system initiated in 2005. Seven older Burgundy barrels form the foundation, with reserve wines drawn annually and combined with wines of the current year, making up 40% of the blend. The young vines are biodynamically farmed, with the grapes harvested and pressed together. The current release is based on the 2015 vintage. Just wow!
