The wine
Boreal is Clandestin's Extra Brut from the Côte des Bar, Pinot Noir grown on the Aube's deep clay and Kimmeridgian marl. This is grower Champagne in the modern, low-intervention mode: vinous, dry, and forthright, with terroir set firmly ahead of polish.
Gleaming straw-gold with a lively, fine mousse. The bouquet is savoury and bright: green apple, citrus pith, white flowers, fresh bread, and a flinty mineral edge. The palate is taut and chalky, with quiet red-fruit weight and racing acidity. Dry, energetic, and saline through a clean, persistent close.
Why we chose it
“Aube Pinot, lean and electric. Extra Brut with nothing to hide.”
