    Additional Info

    A note from Mathilde: "The name Binôme, meaning a team of two people, was chosen as a thank you to my husband who supports me daily, particularly in the vat room during blending because alone we go fast, though in pairs we go further! The name also references to the combination of the two blended grape varieties within the cuvée. The fruitiness of Meunier and the delicacy of the Chardonnay combine elegantly and give a beautiful interpretation of the terroir. The blend of the two vintages, one fresh, the other more sunny, brings balance and complexity."
