Winemaking

Perpétuelle is the emblematic cuvée of the family estate and perfectly reflects the typical characteristics of Chardonnay from Nogent l'Abbesse. Made from 100% Chardonnay grown on chalky soils, this champagne benefits from a high proportion of wines from the perpetual reserve (Solera method), which gives it complexity and balance. The vinification takes place with minimal intervention in small stainless-steel tanks to preserve freshness and liveliness, while aging in oak barrels allows for gentle micro-oxidation. The cuvée musts age patiently until spring on their fine lees, adding aromatic depth to the wine. After bottling, the bottles age in our chalk cellars, and the Extra Brut dosage, under 6 g/l, enhances the subtle nuances of the champagne.

Our tasting note

A clear, pale gold color with green reflections. The nose reveals a fine, complex bouquet with aromas of white flowers, ripe pears, and fresh almonds. Over time, notes of brioche and pastry develop. On the palate, the wine opens with a lively start, followed by a lovely density. Fruity flavors of pear and vine peach blend with a touch of acacia honey. Fresh and silky, with a long, salty finish.
