The Story: Rooted in the Côte des Bar region of southern Champagne, the Moutard family has been tending vines since 1642. This "Grande Cuvée" is their signature release. As a "Blanc de Noirs" (a white wine made entirely from dark-skinned grapes), it perfectly showcases the generous, terroir-driven power that the region's unique Kimmeridgian clay and limestone soils are famous for.
Why You'll Love Me: It delivers a bold, beautifully textured Champagne experience. You will instantly catch inviting, bakery-fresh aromas of baked apple, warm brioche, and a subtle hint of wild red berries. Because it spends at least three years aging in the cellar before release, it boasts a luxurious, creamy mouthfeel that is perfectly lifted by a crisp, elegant, and totally mouthwatering finish.
