Well done on this lovely bottle. It’s full of brioche notes and minerality. A thorough and professional review. Flawless – well done.

Aromatic profile
The structure of this champagne
Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
The Extra Brut dosage and the chalky minerality of the Grands Crus of the Côte des Blancs lend a razor-sharp, persistent vivacity.
Roundness
Partial ageing in former Burgundy barrels ex-Corton-Charlemagne imparts a creamy texture and beautifully elegant buttery notes.
Depth
Ten years of maturation on the lees develops a remarkable aromatic complexity whilst preserving the finesse of the grape variety.
Length
The finish lingers on notes of fresh almond, citrus and a chalky minerality characteristic of Avize and Cramant.
TASTING NOTES
The colour is a luminous golden hue, alive with fine, persistent effervescence. On the nose, a generous bouquet unfolds notes of ripe citrus, white blossom and lightly buttered brioche, enriched by hazelnut nuances drawn from the barrel ageing. On the palate, the attack is crisp and mineral, before a creamy texture and flavours of fresh almond blossom across a long, fresh, citrus-driven finish.

Terroirs
Sourced exclusively from the Grands Crus of Avize, Cramant and Oger at the heart of the Côte des Blancs, this Blanc de Blancs captures the very essence of Champenois Chardonnay grown on deep chalky soils. The blending of vintages and reserve wines — a portion of which is aged in former Burgundy barrels that once held Corton-Charlemagne — adds layers of complexity whilst ensuring a remarkable stylistic consistency.
About this house
Founded in 2005 by Guillaume and Rodolphe Frerejean Taittinger, Frerejean Frères has established itself within two decades as a benchmark house of the Côte des Blancs. The coat of arms bearing crossed cannons pays tribute to an ancestor who manufactured cannons for the Napoleonic armies — a symbol of precision and ambition that runs through the entire range.
Under the technical direction of Didier Pierson, a fifth-generation vigneron from Avize, all Champagnes are crafted exclusively from Premier or Grand Cru classified plots, with extended lees ageing of five to twelve years depending on the cuvée, and deliberately restrained dosages to preserve the raw expression of the terroir.
Food pairing
The perfect pairing
Between the champagne and its dish
Aperitif
Its Extra Brut vivacity and remarkably fine bubbles make it the natural companion to golden cheese gougères, opening a meal with effortless elegance.
Starter
The chalky minerality of Avize and Cramant enters into beautiful dialogue with the briny iodine of a fully mature Breton oyster.
Main course
The creamy texture and buttery notes of the Blanc de Blancs pair with perfect precision alongside the delicacy of a sole meunière prepared with Champagne.
