“Pinot Noir grown in the limestone plateau of the Cte des Bar is the source for this dry Champagne. While it certainly is dry, it is also a rich wine with a pink grapefruit aroma and taut, mineral texture.”

James Suckling, 90 Points

“A focused, precise and refreshing Champagne with notes of dried apples, raspberries, grapefruit, biscuits and chalk. Its medium-bodied, dry and lively. Fine bubbles. 100% pinot noir. From organically grown grapes.”

Wine Advocate, 90 Points

“Entirely crafted from Pinot Noir with no dosage, the NV Brut Nature Pinot Noir Zero Dosage Andre et Michel Sans Ajout de Souffre reveals a lively, fresh bouquet of red berries, lemon, citrus and herbs. Moderately weighted and tense, it’s incisive and pure, with a good core, elegant mousse and an ethereal, menthol-inflected finish.”

Wine Spectator, 90 Points

“A firm version, yet well-knit and lacy in texture, offering aromas and flavors of juicy white cherry, raspberry, salted Marcona almond and honeycomb. Delivers hints of spices and herbs on the finish. Drink now.”

Winemaker Notes:

“For lovers of pure sensations we have created a 100% Pinot Noir cuve with no dosage. It contains only the wine’s natural residual sugar at less than 2g per bottle. Moreover, the use of an absolute minimum of sulphur gives the wine the freedom to express itself totally. On the nose there is crisp and at the same time ripe fruit. On the palate it is upright and pure, with abundant finesse and freshness.

Golden color with copper hues. Nose of freshly pressed black grapes of red, white and citrus fruits. Ample palate with flesh of vineyard peach and bouquet of aromatic herbs. Spicy notes in the finish. A fine tightly knit Champagne of great purity.”
