The 2012 Brut Cuvée Joséphine constitutes only the 10th edition of this iconic cuvée, coming after 1982, 1985, 1989, 1990, 1995, 1998, 2002, 2004 and 2008. Composed of 52% Chardonnay and 48% Pinot Noir, it has an intense bouquet with aromas of orchard fruits, spring flowers, warm biscuits, lemon oil and mint, as well as smoky hints. Very delicate and pure, moderately weighted and perfectly balanced, the palate shows remarkable tension and finesse on the finish. This Champagne is approachable now but also built to evolve with grace over the next three to four years.

The 2014 Brut Cuvée Joséphine, the latest (12th) rendition of this iconic cuvée, displays aromas of white orchard fruits, spring flowers, nuts, pastry, freshly baked bread and crushed stones. With a dosage of five grams per liter, this medium to full-bodied cuvée presents a perfectly balanced palate that underscores the fruity, straightforward nature of the 2014 vintage. It should age well for about five years. This blend is composed of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, all sourced from Ambonnay, Sacy, Cumières, Bergères-les-Vertus and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger.
