Forest-Marié 2013 Champagne Brut
An equal blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, entirely from the Écueil holdings, it whirls like a dervish in a manic frenzy of sinuous, barely torrefied fruit, and ends with an explosion of salt. These are the last 25 cases in existence. Disgorged in November 2025, after more than 11 years en tirage!
