Champagne Premier Cru Nature Amélie is a Blanc de Blancs made exclusively from 100% Chardonnay grapes, sourced from the Clos, Fosses and Alouettes plots (Villers Marmery), with an average vine age of 50 years. Champagne Amélie undergoes vinification on fine lees for 9 months and ageing on the lees for a further 7 years.
In the glass, it presents a pale yellow colour with greenish-white highlights. The nose is dominated by hints of rose, acacia and cloves. As the Champagne breathes, notes of liquorice, brioche and marzipan emerge, with hints of aniseed and iodine on the finish. The palate is underpinned by citrus notes such as lemon and grapefruit, along with mineral hints, against a backdrop of chalky freshness and mint.
Perfect as an aperitif or paired with delicate fish dishes.
To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 8–10°C.
