Produced by the family-owned estate Champagne Pertois-Moriset (founded in 1951), this cuvée celebrates their return to the elite \u003cstrong\u003eClub Trésors de Champagne\u003c\/strong\u003e—a selective group of artisan grower-producers limited to around 28 members. Only exceptional vintages qualify for the \"Special Club\" designation after rigorous blind tastings by a professional jury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThis 2016 vintage comes from top vineyard sites (some vines dating back to 1935), farmed sustainably or biodynamically, with hand-harvesting, fermentation primarily in stainless steel (with some oak), blocked malolactic fermentation for freshness, and extended lees aging (around 4 years) before disgorgement. The result is a dry, mineral-driven Champagne with low dosage (around 1.5g\/L in similar profiles), emphasizing the chalky terroir of Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"auto\"\u003eKey Characteristics and Tasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"auto\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pale gold with fine, persistent bubbles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fresh mineral and chalky aromas, creamy chalk, green apple, pear skin, light toast, crushed chalk, with notes of bread, biscuit, peach, and apple in more evolved tastings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate\u003c\/strong\u003e: Creamy and delicate mousse, aromatic with vibrant minerality, nutty and toasty elements, rich yet intense structure, high acidity, salinity, and a long, clean, tense finish.
