Cellar for several years. No need to decant before serving. This Blanc de Noirs Champagne is a bold and expressive bubbly wine with a rich golden hue and a fine, mousse-like perlage. The nose is bursting with aromatic notes of red apple, lemon zest, black stewed cherry, and wild berries. It is crafted from 100% Pinot Noir grapes, a majority of which were harvested from Premier and Grand Crus in Champagne, such as Aÿ, Mailly, and Cumière. In the beginning, Canard-Duchene was a love story. It was founded in 1868 by Victor Canard, a barrel maker, and Léonie Duchêne, a grape grower, in the heart of Montagne de Reims. These days, it has grown into a prestigious Champagne house, with vineyards in some of the finest plots of land across Montagne de Reims and Côte des Blancs. On the palate, it showcases flavors of ripe raspberry, plum, sour cherry, and subtle forest-floor earthiness, balanced by a creamy mousse and shimmering acidity. Half of the Pinot Noir grapes came from reserve wines, adding a certain depth to the experience. This is a versatile and interesting expression of Champagne, lying on the fuller-bodied side, making it perfect for pairing with rich and savoury foods, such as roasted duck, grilled meats, or mushroom risotto.
