Laurent’s father first made this now emblematic cuvée in 1989. As the name suggests, it is the heart of the juice from the press, offering up a complex and intense expression of the vintage. It is a blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir which comes from premier cru vineyards in the heart of the Montagne de Reims, and shows taut control and complex structure. Malolactic fermentation is blocked, and the wine shows tension and grip, with a juicy, ripe citrus character and racy freshness. The wine was matured in old oak, giving a softness and breadth on the palate.
