This is very pure and mineral with chalk, lemon and white-grapefruit notes. It's laser-focused and sleek with vibrant acidity. Tight bubbles. Cool, long and precise. 100% chardonnay. 4g/L dosage.

This enticing Champagne glides across the palate with the cool poise of Grace Kelly on the big screen, showing finesse and elegant detail but also a sense of vitality that makes it hard to stop sipping. Creamy in texture, this is driven by chiseled acidity, which makes a finely knit frame for flavors of ripe green apple, crunchy white peach, blanched almond, fleur de sel and blood orange pith as they expand on the palate and the lasting finish. Drink now through 2036.

Rodolphe Péters' most celebrated cuvée is a blend of three parts of the Chétillon vineyard in Le Mesnil, embodying the village's glacial, tense and exacting Chardonnay. It's a cuvée that requires some patience, although the relatively forward 2016 vintage is already revving up with intense dried citrus, plum and orange cream, showing all the acceleration and build on the palate that this forceful cuvée, long one of the Côte des Blanc's most impressive parcellaire wines, makes its own. It may not be the purest, most svelte vintage, but 2016's compact energy and structure will serve this wine very well over the next two decades.

Rich and Terroir-Driven Elegance

The 2015 vintage in Champagne featured warm, dry conditions that delivered ripe and concentrated Chardonnay fruit. The chalk-rich soils of Les Chétillons contributed to the wine’s exceptional structure, tension, and minerality, while Pierre Péters’ meticulous winemaking preserved its finesse and vibrancy. This vintage offers both richness and precision, with remarkable aging potential for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
