The Champagne Brut Nature, which is predominately Meunier, is a cuvée without dosage. Our reserve wines make up an important portion of the blend. It is then aged for two years in stainless steel
tanks, and then rests four years in the bottle aging. The absence of dosage brings a natural element to the wine, a linear quality, a tightness, while also bringing forth a generous complexity thanks to its robustly aromatic qualities.

The Brut Nature is best in the beginning of the meal with more mature cheeses such as an older Comte. It can also handle saltier foods, or a truffle toast with salt butter. Other food pairings include raw fish dishes, such as pickled octopus, a tuna tartare, or any other sushi.
