Discover the grape variety: Arbane
Elegant, taut sparkling whites with a pale golden robe, a nervous palate and a razor-sharp acidity of refined citrus (lemon), green apple, white flowers (acacia), pear and chalky mineral notes. Fine ageing potential. A traditional minor component of Champagne AOC (one of 7 authorised grapes), preserved by growers attached to historic heritage. Rare native French grape of the Aube, a forgotten Champenois signature.

The word of the wine: Oxidative (breeding)
A method of ageing which aims to give the wine certain aromas of evolution (dried fruit, bitter orange, coffee, rancio, etc.) by exposing it to the air; it is then matured either in barrels, demi-muids or unoaked casks, sometimes stored in the open air, or in barrels exposed to the sun and to temperature variations. This type of maturation characterizes certain natural sweet wines, ports and other liqueur wines.
