Chardonnay from a single parcel of 50 + year old vines in Vertus. The wine is fermented and then aged in barrel, 40% of which are new. 
"The 2020 Coteaux Champenois Blanc En Vieux Fombrés, which saw 18 months' élevage, is performing well, wafting from the glass with notes of peach, citrus oil, orange blossom, toasted nuts and nutmeg, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive palate, with a pretty core of fruit, racy acids and a saline finish. It is already drinking well."
