Aromatic profile

The structure of this champagne

Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
The Extra-Brut at 2.5 g/L preserves a finely chiselled tension and lively acidity, the hallmark of Aube Pinot Noir.
Roundness
Ten years on lees and 40% barrel vinification lend a broad, silky texture.
Power
One hundred per cent old-vine Pinot Noir, Boléro delivers a generous and deeply structured palate.
Length
The finish lingers on notes of toast and candied stone fruits.

TASTING NOTES

A golden robe with the coppery highlights characteristic of an aged Blanc de Noirs. On the nose, a complex richness mingles dried fruits, toasted almonds and candied citrus over a backdrop of saline minerality. The palate is forthright and generous, underpinned by an elegant tension that sustains a long, toasty finish.

Terroirs

Sourced from the clay-limestone soils of the Aube (Barséquanais), the favoured terroir for Champenois Pinot Noir, farmed in full biodynamics since 1992. The grapes, harvested from old vines, are vinified 60% in temperature-controlled tanks and 40% in oak barrels, then aged for ten years on lees.

Fleury

About this house

Founded in Courteron in the Aube, Maison Fleury was the first Champagne house to embrace biodynamics, as early as 1989, under the vision of Jean-Pierre Fleury — a true pioneer in a region then firmly committed to conventional viticulture. The soils are worked mechanically, synthetic chemistry has been banished for decades, and every intervention follows the biodynamic calendar.

Today led by Benoît Fleury, supported since 2010 by his brother Jean-Sébastien, the estate pursues a quest for precision centred on massal selection and agroforestry. The cuvée Boléro, born of Benoît's ambition, embodies the quintessence of Aube Pinot Noir in its most accomplished vintage expression.

Its saline tension and fine mousse pair beautifully with golden Comté gougères.

The unctuous richness of foie gras answers the depth and complexity of this lees-aged Pinot Noir.

The umami of morels and the creamy texture of risotto echo the woody, toasty notes of Boléro.
