The Clandestin Boréal: A Pure, Zero-Dosage Blanc de Noirs

The CHAMPAGNE CLANDESTIN LES SEMBLABLES BORÉAL is a stunning, high-definition Blanc de Noirs from the dynamic Côte des Bar region. Winemaker Benoît Doussot's focus is on revealing the pristine character of north-facing Pinot Noir plots, resulting in a Champagne that is both powerful and intensely mineral. As a Brut Nature (zero dosage), it offers unadulterated purity, making it a true connoisseur's choice.

Tasting Profile & Provenance

Sourced from Kimmeridgian marl soils-the same geological vein found in Chablis-this Champagne boasts a unique, focused profile.

• Colour: Brilliant, pale golden hue with a stream of ultra-fine bubbles.
• Aroma: The nose is complex, presenting notes of white flowers, crisp pear, lime zest, and a signature scent of wet chalk. A subtle, creamy autolytic note (buttery pastry) hints at its extended lees aging.
• Mouthfeel: Defined by a thrilling tension and a creamy, yet ultra-dry texture. Flavours of tart red berries (a Pinot Noir hallmark) and bright citrus are carried on a precise, mineral backbone. The finish is exceptionally long and saline.

Food & Serving Suggestions

A sophisticated match for rich, savory dishes. Best served at 10-12°C (50-54°F).

• Suggested Pairings: Truffle-stuffed Guinea Fowl, Smoked Salmon Blinis with Crème Fraîche, Classic Crab Cakes, Fine Comté Cheese.
