Julie Dufour's Cuvée Cléobuline Chapitre 2 Brut Nature is an organic, non-dosed sparkling wine, primarily a Blanc de Blancs (100% Chardonnay). While listed as non-vintage, some bottlings, such as the Chapitre II, are made solely from a single vintage (e.g., 2020) and disgorged after a couple of years on lees. This Champagne is a testament to Julie Dufour's passion for organic viticulture and her focus on terroir expression and lower intervention winemaking. In the glass, this Champagne typically shows a pale, luminous straw color with fine, persistent bubbles. The nose offers fruity and floral aromas, accompanied by notes of pastry, brioche, sourdough, and bread, with hints of wet stone, chalk, and lemon. On the palate, it is precise and mineral-driven, with racy acidity beautifully balanced by tartness. Flavors include citrus fruits, unripe stone fruits, gooseberry, green apple, yuzu, and lemon zest, with a chalky grip and creamy bubbles. As a Brut Nature, it's an unadorned expression of Chardonnay, terroir, and vintage, leaning into precision and tension rather than richness. 【A pure, mineral-driven expression of Chardonnay with razor-sharp freshness.】 This Champagne is ideal for those who appreciate a precise, mineral-driven style. It's perfect for celebrations, aperitifs, or as a sophisticated accompaniment to a meal. Its vibrant acidity and purity make it a refreshing choice for any festive occasion. 🍴 Food Pairing: This Brut Nature Champagne is a natural match for oysters, shellfish platters, sashimi, ceviche, and simply prepared white fish, where its razor-sharp freshness and minerality truly shine. It also pairs beautifully with goat cheese, fresh cheeses, sushi, tempura, and light vegetable dishes, as well as delicate poultry or lean veal in citrus-based sauces.
