This exceptional Champagne showcases the excellence of Canard-Duchene's. Brioche and toasted notes are noticed first, followed by ripe fruits like mirabelle and hints of raspberry. The balance of this Champagne is built around cedarwood and mineral notes, enhanced by a touch of salinity, creating a beautiful structure.
In 1859 winemaker Leonie Duchene met and married barrel maker Victor Canard. They decided to combine their last names and produce their own unique Champagne, based on the Pinot Noir grapes they grew in the heart of the Montagne de Reims.They released their first bottling of Champagne 8 years later in 1868 to rave reviews.Leonie was among the first female winemakers in the Champagne region, and to this day Canard-Duchene is one of the few Champagne houses still family owned.Winemaker Laurent Fedou describes the house style as “very lively, youthful and balanced with freshness and bright acidity”.Fun Fact - Its France’s most popular Champagne brand! On average, a bottle of Canard-Duchene is opened every 15 seconds in France.
This mature Champagne shows some great toastiness as well as the white fruits that give it richness. It is a full wine, the bone-dry intensity now softened by age.
