Winery & Vintage Info
In matters of taste Madame Pommery was ahead of her time. It was she who created Pommery Nature in 1874, the first brut champagne to meet with commercial success, thereby breaking with the tradition of very sweet wine. A woman in a man’s world, she imprinted her personality on her champagnes. The purity and the finesse of Pommery wines perpetuate this legacy.
The variety of grapes used in their champagnes, the quality of the annual harvest, the selection of vintages for blends, the time spent ageing in the cellar... so many parameters and so much care add nuance to the flavours. Pommery operates according to a foundational principle: the selection of vintages that make up the blend, fused and aged over a long period of time in the cellar—and not the dosage—must be the source of the wines’ distinctive characteristics.
A 100% Chardonnay blend in the Pommery style, a meticulous and confidential selection of magnificent terroirs.
The Chardonnays of the Côte des Blancs provide the main foundation for this cuvée and its great elegance.
On this solid base, the terroirs of the northern part of the Montagne de Reims and the hill of Nogent l'Abbesse bring vivacity, structure and complexity. It is the harmonious combination of these great terroirs that allows this cuvée to express an astonishing freshness and a maturity worthy of an Apanage.
