Virtually languishing in obscurity for at least five years, the bottles will protect a precious secret. During this time, while resting on the lees, the wines will experience the alliance of chemistry and magic that enthralls palates the world over.

The wines will take in decades of history written on the chalk walls; to assimilate the very spirit and soul of all the ‘shapers’ behind Champagne Castelnau.

Lengthy lees-ageing provides a cocoon of sernity and plenitude to Castelnau champagnes. For those who taste their splendour, their patience is rewarded as the champagne’s full personality is released.
