Grapes: 100% Chardonnay

L’Etonnant Monsieur Victor is above all a Péters’ family project and adventure. This surprising and extraordinary wine goes against the current trend of single-vintage,
single-vineyard Champagnes and is elaborated in accordance with the time-tested Champagne savoir-faire of multi-vintage blends.

Their ambition being to offer the greatest multi-vintage Champagne that they could, they selected the best vats of their Perpetual Reserve starting from the year 1988 (wines conserved in stainless steel and concrete vats and big casks) as well as the best wines chosen from the latest harvest from the terroir of “Chétillon”. The older vintages educate
the younger wine which in turn enriches the whole with its specific character and youth. For the optimum development of this Grand Cru champagne, L’Etonnant Monsieur Victor ages for 6 years on a natural cork in their cellars.  The wine is dense, the mouth is full, marrying sweet spices, grapefruit, Mirabelle plum and fresh hazelnut. The long almost salty finish reveals notes of candied mandarin orange and grilled almonds.
