An elegant and generous aromatic profile

This cuvée reveals a beautiful aromatic richness without losing its freshness.

The initial notes evoke citrus zest, fresh pear, and white-fleshed fruits. With aeration, slightly pastry-like and floral nuances gradually emerge.

The palate maintains a lot of balance thanks to a beautiful tension that supports the body and prolongs the sensation of freshness.

An ideal champagne for gourmet pairings

Thanks to its natural balance, this cuvée easily accompanies many culinary preparations.

It pairs particularly well with seafood, fine fish, delicate poultry, or lightly lemon-flavored dishes. Its elegant texture also enhances a refined aperitif.

Enthusiasts appreciate its versatility and ease of pairing with various dishes.

How to taste this organic champagne?

To fully enjoy the aromas of this cuvée, it is advisable to serve the champagne between 8 and 10°C.

A temperature that is too cold risks masking certain aromatic subtleties. A slightly warmer serving allows for greater expression of its complexity.

The tulip glass remains the most suitable for concentrating the aromas and fully appreciating the finesse of the bubbles.

Pascal Doquet Arpege can be enjoyed now for its freshness, but it also has an interesting potential for evolution.

What food and champagne pairings to favor?

This cuvée pairs particularly well with:

• Oysters and shellfish
• Sashimis and raw fish
• Grilled or steamed fish
• Poultry with light sauces
• Roasted vegetables with fresh herbs
• Mildly strong aged cheeses

Its balance between freshness and indulgence also favors pairings with contemporary or plant-based cuisine.

Conservation advice and cellar aging

To preserve all the qualities of the champagne, a few important conservation precautions remain.

Store the bottle lying down in a dark, stable, and cool place. A cellar temperature between 10 and 12°C provides the best storage conditions.

With a few years of aging, this cuvée can develop greater complexity. Slightly toasted and brioche notes then enrich its aromatic profile while maintaining a beautiful freshness.
