This small‑production cuvée blends Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Meunier from massale‑selected vines, giving the wine both depth and a striking sense of identity. It’s crafted entirely from free‑run juice and aged in a mix of barrels, demi‑muids, and foudres, which adds quiet complexity without muting its crystalline freshness. Short sips feel electric and focused. Longer ones reveal layers of citrus, orchard fruit, and subtle pastry tones that unfold with graceful confidence. The Extra Brut dosage sharpens the edges just enough, letting the wine’s purity shine. It’s a bottle that feels both thoughtful and effortlessly drinkable, the kind of Champagne that lingers in memory long after the glass is empty.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTasting Notes: Nose: Aromas of lemon zest rise immediately with bright, lifted intensity. Crisp green apple follows, adding a clean, refreshing edge. Hints of chalk, white flowers, and subtle brioche weave through, creating a layered and expressive bouquet. Palate: The palate opens with vibrant citrus that glides across the tongue. Orchard fruit adds roundness while the fine mousse brings a lively, dancing texture. Gentle oak influence adds quiet depth, giving the wine a polished, harmonious rhythm. Finish: The finish lingers with a long, mineral drive shaped by chalky soils. A touch of salinity adds clarity as the flavors fade. Subtle notes of citrus peel and pastry return at the end, leaving a refined, echoing impression.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFood Pairing: Pair this Champagne with oysters to highlight its mineral precision. It shines alongside sushi, especially delicate white fish or scallop. Try it with roasted chicken and herbs for a comforting, elegant match. It also complements soft cheeses like triple‑cream brie, where richness meets refreshing acidity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Polaner Selections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49900313018597,"sku":null,"price":67.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1044\/1362\/files\/Tellier.jpg?v=1782481649","url":"https:\/\/grainvine.com\/products\/tellier-les-massales-extra-brut-2022","provider":"Grain \u0026 Vine | Natural Wines, Rare Bourbon and Tequila Collection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
