V2010

V 2010, An exceptionally bold vintage

Named in honor of Victor Canard, Champagne V embodies the savoir-faire of Canard-Duchêne, highlighting Pinot Noir and the emblematic crus of the Montagne de Reims.

V 2010 perfectly combines delicacy and intensity, and is magnified by prolonged ageing and an Extra-Brut dosage that preserves the purity of the fruit.

The demands of the 2010 harvest led to a unique production run of 7,000 magnum bottles, all numbered.

Vintage 2010

2010 brought challenging weather conditions, but through a meticulous sorting process, the clear wines revealed their exceptional quality.

Aging

Aged in our cellars for 12 years. 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.

Dosage

< 4 g/liter

“The quintessence of the Ambonnay, Aÿ and Rilly-la-Montagne terroirs is expressed with delicacy and power, whilst the finesse and freshness of the Chardonnays from Chouilly bring an invigorating tone to this exceptional cuvée.”
Laurent Fédou, Cellar Master
