Serge Mathieu
The Mathieu family has lived in Avirey-Lingey since at least the 18th century. They go to great lengths to harvest grapes at optimum ripeness.
In the winery they try to obtain as much personality and flavour from these grapes, which involves a light hand in vinification and careful thinking.
What results are showstopping authentic champagnes that are true expressions of what the region is renowned for.
Serge Mathieu 2010 Brut Millesime
French Sparkling
$128.99
A Pinot Noir-led Champagne with yellow apple, Williams pear and citrus over fine stony notes. The palate has real breadth and structure, but freshness and a precise mineral line keep it elegant. Dry, persistent and lightly grippy on the finish, it is a serious table Champagne for roast poultry, richer seafood or firm, nutty cheese.
Serge Mathieu NV Brut Prestige
French Sparkling
$89.99
Firm and energetic, with white peach, pear and lime framed by chalk, stone and a subtle beeswax note. Fine bubbles and bright acidity give the palate precision, while the Pinot Noir-led blend adds breadth beneath the citrus fruit. The finish is dry, mineral and persistent. Serve as an aperitif or with oysters, fried seafood or aged hard cheese.
Serge Mathieu Select Tete De Cuvee Brut
French Sparkling
$109.99
A generous, harmonious Champagne with fine citrus notes and a delicate, polished feel. Careful selection of the finest grapes and first-press juice gives the palate clarity and balance, while the bubbles keep the fruit lifted through a clean finish. Elegant as an aperitif, it also suits oysters, smoked salmon, soft cheese or light canapés.
Serge Mathieu Brut Prestige NV 1.5 L
French Sparkling
$182.99
Pale gold colour accompanies a fruity nose and a fruit-driven palate with finesse. The blend is two-thirds Pinot Noir and one-third Chardonnay. Ageing lasts four years, and dosage is 8.6 grams per litre. The cuvée combines base wines from two harvest years. It is the house’s only wine composed of two grape varieties, and its profile is described as both elegant and strong.
Serge Mathieu NV Brut Rosé
French Sparkling
$99.99
Fresh and full-bodied, with strawberry, pomegranate and darker berry notes carried by a firm, fine mousse. The palate is crisp and savoury, balancing red-fruit richness with lively acidity and a clean, energetic structure. Tiny bubbles keep the texture precise, while a gentle toast note adds breadth to the finish. Serve with charcuterie, grilled salmon or mushroom tart.
