TASTING NOTES

The Cazé line up starts with his “Naturellement” cuvée which is a pure and bracing rendition of 100% Pinot Meunier. This crisp, elegant,mineral-driven grower Champagne shows vibrant citrus, pear and white blossom on the nose with subtle brioche aromas. The Naturellement opens with a vibrant attack, driven by lemon peel, green grapefruit and white orchard fruit. The texture is precise and linear, supported by an ultra-fine mousse that feels both energetic and delicate. There's a clear sense of tension and purity, with chalky minerality and a light saline note with a lingering finish. Due to its dry, crisp profile and minerality, it is well suited for fresh seafood like oysters and scallops, lighter fare such as salads and ceviche, and dishes that benefit from acidity cutting through richness, such as foie gras or charcuterie.
