A fine mousse and tiny bead; the bouquet is quite forward, with floral notes coupled with cherries, apples, mineral notes and some light brioche; on the palate, it's a true classic, with very layered flavours and complexity, yet quite elegant and stylish; the finish is crisp and lingering. Very fine indeed! |

Canard-Duchêne is unique in its origins, history and style. The Champagne house has been located in Ludes, in the Montagne de Reims National Park, since 1868. Its founders, Victor Canard and Léonie Duchêne, both well-known characters in Champagne, were granted the right by the Russian Imperial Family to adopt its coat of arms as the family emblem. The crowned two-headed eagle has thus appeared on every Canard-Duchêne label since the end of the 19th century. From 1978 to 2003, the house was under the ownership of LVMH. It is now part of the family owned Alain Thienot Group.
