Each vintage presents a distinct expression of our coastal climate and is celebrated for their uniqueness. Some growing seasons stand out as having produced wines of uncommon depth and character, and intriguingly, reads like an arithmetic sequence: 2004, 2008, 2012 and finally 2016.

In 2012, this is thanks to dry and cool harvest months, delaying the pick by over two weeks, which allowed for additional maturity with the elongated season.

A luminary Brut Reserve unlikely to be matched for some years, this wine was the very last to be assembled by Champagne oenologist Raphaël Brisbois; a last opus of epic proportions composed only a few weeks before his passing. This wine’s commercial release will be in the autumn of 2018.
