Tasting Notes

The nose is dense on a universe of pastries. Then comes the expression of maturity with notes of candied fruits (pineapple and yellow fruits) and smoky nuances of fresh peat, tea, dark rum and tobacco. The palate displays a beautiful energy with a wide aromatic palate. The maturity is there with bergamot tea and a spicy-fruity dimension on candied citrus fruits (cinnamon, clove, orange, yellow lemon).

About the Producer

“Manufacteurs de Grands Crus”. Michel Genet like to call themselves “manufacteurs” (“artisans”) from the word’s Latin origins in manu-factum = made by hand as they are personally involved in every stage of creating their Champagnes. Antoine, Vincent et Agnès Genet take an artisan approach to managing their family-run Champagne House, which bears the name of their father, Michel Genet. All three advocate taking the most natural approach to viticulture and vinification possible, and their process is highly selective (vine parcel supervision, organic (AB) amendments, sustainable pest control), qualitative (with approved quality standards for the entire winery) and reliable (independent, stringent and reactive).
