"Drinking Window: 2022 - 2035
Disgorged in July 2021 without dosage and immersed in September 2021 for 10 months, the Abyss rosé 2018 opens in the glass with delicate notes of iodine, strawberry, spices and lemon oil. Medium- to full-bodied, fleshy and concentrated, it’s vinous, with a chalky structure and a long, sapid finish. It will drink at its peak in 10 years’ time."

96/100
"Bottle-aged for 12 months at a depth of 60 metres under sea, this cuvée is composed of one-third Pinot Noir from Villers-Allerand, one-third Chardonnay from Montgueux and one-third Pinot Meunier from Chamery. Fresh, floral nose with a sea tang to it, but also a bit of reduction just after opening. The palate is elegant but incredibly taut, while the taste has an alluring oxidative element interacting with its white fruit. This is a Champagne that will shine at the dinner table.

Drinking Window 2025 - 2050"
