- Terroir: Côte des Bar, Gyé-sur-Seine – clay-limestone soils over Kimmeridgian marl.

- Low-temperature alcoholic fermentation (13°C) using in-house S. Bayanus yeast.

- Disgorgement: 03/2025
- Dosage: 2 g/L – Extra Brut
- Tasting Notes: Bright pale yellow with subtle green reflections. Fine, lively bubbles forming a persistent bead. A complex, intense, and refined nose with notes of apricot, toasted almonds, spices, and butter, with a delicate mineral touch. The palate reveals flavors of peach and pear with a spicy finish, offering harmony and depth.
- Food Pairing: Ideal as an aperitif or with tuna bites seasoned with coriander.
- Josselin Family’s Insight: A Champagne with aging potential beyond five years, thanks to its beautiful freshness—a true sign of longevity. A Champagne with spirit.
- Winemaker’s Note: Pale yellow color with green-gold highlights. The nose is delicate and floral, with notes of mint, linden, acacia, lemon, and pear. The palate is clean and precise, with lively acidity balanced by a subtle vinosity.
