It is vinified exclusively in tank and incorporates 40% purchased fruit—sourced slightly farther afield than Lassaigne’s own holdings but planted entirely to massal-selection Chardonnay. It unfurls in the glass with aromas of pear, peach and spring blossoms, subtly framed by the reductive imprint of its recent disgorgement. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied and concentrated, with a charmingly fleshy mid-palate, girdled by racy acidity and culminating in a long, saline finish.

The cooler exposition tempers Montgueux's naturally generous fruit, yielding a Champagne that is less exotic than many of Lassaigne's other cuvées and instead defined by citrus, chalk, and crystalline minerality. Fermented with native yeasts, aged partly in older oak on its fine lees, and bottled with little or no dosage depending on the disgorgement, it is crafted to let the vineyard speak with minimal interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, Le Cotet is all about energy rather than opulence.

Each variety is fermented separately with native yeasts and aged in older oak barrels before the final assemblage, then bottled without dosage after extended lees aging.
