    • Description

      The Champagne Autreau Les Perles de la Dhuy Grand Cru 2016 is a true gem of the Champagne region, expertly crafted from the prestigious vineyards of Aÿ and Chouilly. This cuvée is a perfect representation of the Grand Cru status, combining 50% Chardonnay from Chouilly and 50% Pinot Noir from Aÿ. The wine's extensive six-year aging on lees has endowed it with a remarkable depth of flavor, offering a dense bouquet of lemon, buttercream, hazelnut, and red apple, intertwined with subtle hints of apricot and white stone minerality.

      On the palate, the champagne reveals a beautifully balanced presence, where vibrant apple, lemon, and stone fruit flavors are elegantly supported by a core of chalky minerality and a touch of bakeshop notes. The creamy, melting perlage adds to its luxurious mouthfeel, while the finish maintains a refined and persistent note of delicate spice. With its dedication to sustainable viticulture and its exquisite quality at a reasonable price, this Grand Cru stands out as an exceptional choice for any celebratory occasion or discerning palate.
