Brut Blanc de Blancs

From the Vine to the Winery

Grapes coming from our vines transmit the carefully-controlled culture of the mature slopes of Epernay and the Côte de Blancs (the principal Chardonnay-growing region, south of Epernay, between Chouilly and Bergères-les-Vertus).
Pressing and racking of the Must are carried out in the traditional way.
Vinification is in temperature-regulated, stainless-steel tanks and the alcoholic fermentation is carried out at low temperature (15° C) which conserves all of the aromatic finesse.

From the Winery to the Bottle

Blend : 60% from one year’s harvest, 40% reserve wine.
Slow development of the sparkle in the constant temperature of our Cellars.
Ageing on the lees between 24 and 36 months. Manual or mechanical riddling.
Dosage : between 10 and 12 g/l of sugar blended with reserve wine, followed by a rest of 3 to 6 months after disgorging.

From the Bottle to the Glass

Clear yellow in colour with glints of green pearls opening at the release of the sparkle. The effervescence is persistent, lively and delicate.
The nose is marked by the freshness. Some aromas of tangy fruits are distinctly perceptible (green apple, fresh citrus, grapefruit), some flowery notes of jasmine and lime.
The palate is alive and fresh.
The flowery scents dominate and a touch of lemon lingers on the finish.
A champagne given to freshness and subtlety.
Essential for devotees of Chardonnay.
