"The NV Rive Droite comes from sites with more clay, which makes for a Champagne with broader shoulders and greater overall textural presence " that benefits this cuvee nicely. Dried pear, hazelnut, spice, chamomile and tangerine peel all build effortlessly. The Rive Droite is effortless and totally delicious. This release is based on 2023, with 30% reserve wines from 2022. Dosage is 4 grams per liter. Disgorged: December 2025."

"Sleek and finely meshed, with the mousse forming a plush swathe of texture on the palate as it carries notes of dried white cherry and raspberry fruit, almond blossoms, blood orange peel and chopped nuts. A clean tang of salinity chimes in on the mouthwatering finish. Meunier and Pinot Noir. Disgorged 2024. Drink now. 500 cases imported."

"The NV Champagne Rive Droite is 85% Meunier and the rest Pinot Noir. Pouring a pale straw color, the nose is a bit shy on opening and is savory with wet stone. Medium-bodied, the mousse is a bit subtle, but it reveals more ripeness and intensity on the palate, with delicate strawberry and light spice. It has a savory feel through the salty finish, with notes of grapefruit. Drink it over the next several years. Disgorged November 2023."
