Vintage 2018

This vintage is the fruit of exceptional weather conditions during the year and grapes of the highest quality. After a very rainy autumn and winter, the dry and sunny summer offered ideal conditions, producing a fresh, fruity, elegant and delicate wine.

Aging

6 years

Aged in our cellars in Ludes

Canard-Duchêne Champagnes are at their finest the moment they leave the cellars. However, depending on your personal preference, they can be aged for an additional 2 to 3 years, provided they are stored away from light in a stable environment between 10°C and 15°C.

« The 2018 vintage is the interpretation of a great year in Champagne in the Maison style of Canard-Duchêne. It’s a subtle blend of the generosity and charm of our Pinot Noir, particularly from the Montagne de Reims, and the delicacy and freshness of carefully selected Chardonnays. A magnificent expression of this extraordinary year. »

Tasting notes

On the eye

A luminous golden color with lovely copper highlights.

On the nose

Orchard fruit aromas such as apricot, peach and mirabelle plum, sublimated by hints of honey and a slight sweetness.

On the palate

Freshness and fruitiness are followed by a lovely roundness. The fine, slightly mentholated finish offers a pleasantly long aftertaste.
