All Champagne wines are aged in the producers’ cellars for at least 15 months for NV Champagne, for a minimum of three years for vintage
wines and even longer for prestige cuvées
, before being released.
Time allows the wines’ aromas
to develop.
When young (15 months to 3 years), they give off white flower, citrus and fresh fruit aromas.
When mature (3 to 5 years) bold summer flowers or ripe/stewed fruit aromas dominate.
At their peak, i.e. with five years or more, they begin to express themselves through bouquets of dried flowers and grilled nuts.
