Pascal Mazet - Unique (Demi)

The cuvée that best reflects the accumulated experience of Pascal Mazet since he established the domaine in 1981. Unique lives up to its name: it changes every year, adapted to the specificities of each harvest, an ongoing evolution that is the result of a constant demand to respect and preserve the quality of what the organic vineyard produces. The 2016-based edition blends four grape varieties including Pinot Blanc (11%), with 47% vinified in French oak barrels. Seven years on lees. A champagne of great aromatic complexity, born from decades of listening to the land.

Tasting notes: A floral and aromatic symphony revealing notes of Granny Smith apple. Fine and energetic on the palate, a champagne with tension and elegance, the complexity of the oak and the perpetual reserve providing depth without weight.

Food pairing: A refined aperitif. Also excellent with fine fish, soft-rind cheeses, white meats and light mushroom dishes.
