A blend of grapes from Mailly's privileged heritage of very old vines, planted before 1938, which produce richly structured, complex musts. They come from a handful of carefully preserved parcels where the vines are meticulously maintained and reproduced from original stock.
Manual picking, whole-cluster pressing, alcoholic fermentation at 16°C. Malolactic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless- steel tanks. Ageing on laths in traditional chalk cellars.

A glittering, golden Champagne, twinkling with amber highlights and an endless cascade of shimmering, festive bubbles. The wine shows depth and refinement on the nose, revealing an exquisite bouquet of perfectly ripe fruit (pears and Mirabelle plums) and crystallized citrus (lemons and mandarins) blended with delicate hints of almonds, sweet pastries, honey and caramel. These flavours linger deliciously on the palate, highlighting the wine's dense substance and length. There is a fine balance of fullness and freshness as subtle notes of butter and spice create a wonderfully mellow flavour. A lasting, mineral component, a signature characteristic of this Champagne, underlines the wine's radiance and purity to create a lingering palate profile.
