Champagne Doyard-Mahé

A fully mature, decade-old vintage Champagne with six years on its lees after fermentation (note: only three years are required). Still quite light coloured. An expansive, savoury opening – bone marrow and cabbage roll, followed by lemon oil and nutty elements. The wine displays medium acidity on the palate, is extra dry (8 g/L dosage), very supple with integrated mousse, medium texture, extract and body, with nice length and intensity of savoury bouillon notes, lemon oil and hazelnut paste to medium finish.
