ABOUT THIS WINE
The Table Ronde is a Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Champagne crafted exclusively from Chardonnay grown in the prized chalk soils of Cramant, a Grand Cru village in the Cte des Blancs. Lancelot-Piennea grower-producer with deep family roots in the regionproduces this cuve as an homage to purity, heritage, and the elegance of Chardonnay in its most refined Champagne form.
This cuve is composed of a blend of reserve wines (solera-style perpetual reserve begun in 2003), offering both freshness and depth. The wine is vinified partially in stainless steel and partially in neutral oak to build mid-palate texture without masking its mineral edge. It is aged for extended time on the lees in bottle (typically 56 years) before disgorgement and finished with a low dosage (Extra Brut, around 23 g/L), preserving its linear profile and site expression.
The result is a Champagne of detail and quiet intensity. Expect citrus zest, chalk dust, toasted brioche, and subtle hazelnut, all riding on a palate of fine bubbles and crystalline structure. The long lees aging lends subtle autolytic depth, while the low dosage ensures clarity and length.
Ideal as an aperitif or paired with delicate seafoodoysters, scallop crudo, or sole meunire. It will also reward cellaring for several more years.
