Tasting Note

The pure expression of a terroir, the absence of dosage reveals the complexity of its aromas and it's delicacy and balance. A fabulous zero dosage wine.

Producer

The Collard family settled in Bouzy in 1919 through the marriage of Lucien Collard (grandfather of the current owner of the House) and Julia Bara. She came from a family of winegrowers who had settled in this Grand Cru since 1833. Lucien Collard and his God Daughter Auriane now create fabulous champagnes from the 2 hectares of vines, 1 in Bouzy and 1 in Celles sur Ource, in the Aube. They maintain strict quality standards to ensure maximum respect for the terroir. Vines are treated with organic products (with supplements borrowed from biodynamic farming), they limit the use of sulphur, low dosage and extended ageing time to maintain top quality throughout. Prior to joining Lucien, Auriane spent a year with Jacqueson.
