Food / wine pairing: this vintage will go perfectly with desserts such as fruit tarts, raspberry or mocha macaroons, pink grapefruit soufflé. This is a cuvée that goes perfectly with sweet and savory dishes such as ducks glazed with orange.

In 1584, Pierre Gosset, who was then Alderman of Aÿ and winemaker, produced still wines, often red, with the harvest of his own vines in Aÿ. It is for this reason that this House is the oldest Champagne House.

At that time, the wines of A like the wines of Burgundy were competing for the place at the table of the Kings of France. Both were made from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

Later, in the 18th century, only Aÿ wine, called Champagne at the end of the 19th century, became effervescent.
