MAKE IT A GIFT
Some Champagnes are simply enjoyed – others are experienced. Bouché Millésime 2012 definitely belongs to the latter.
Made from 75% Pinot Noir and 25% Chardonnay, with part of the cuvée matured in oak barrels, this vintage Champagne spent an impressive 14 years resting in the cellars before release. The result is a Champagne of remarkable depth and elegance, yet with a beautifully vibrant freshness.
In the glass, it shows a warm golden hue and a fine, lively mousse. Aromas of vanilla, caramel and orange peel come together on the nose – warm and inviting, with a playful edge. On the palate, it remains remarkably fresh, with elegant spice, fine structure and a balance of power and precision that its Extra Brut dosage of just 4 g/L brings into sharp focus.
Bouché Millésime 2012 is a wonderful way to begin a special occasion, particularly alongside firm cheeses such as Beaufort or Comté, but it is equally compelling on its own. A characterful, sun-kissed vintage Champagne that shows just how rewarding patience can be.
