GRAND CRU BLANC DE BLANCS

The expression ofthe rarest of Chardonnays
The character of a great Terroir:Chouilly

BLEND :This Cuvée is a grand tribute to that uniquely fleshy, buttery character of Chouilly. The vinification process is very traditional, partly in barrels, and further accentuates the typical character of this famous terroir.Thanks to long ageing for at least 4 years, the lightest of dosages is possible at 5 g/l, thereby magnifying the wine and preserving all its natural freshness.

VISUAL ASPECT : Golden colour with the greenish tints so typical of a Blanc de Blancs, extremely fine bubbles, delicate foam.

NOSE : Makes a delicious impression with its initial floral scents followed by rich white fruit aromas.

ON THE PALATE : A fleshy, full-bodied wine with buttery flavours - the unique expression of those renowned Chouilly Chardonnays. A lingering, long-lasting finish.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS :This cuvée makes a superbly generous aperitif, and is ideal served with more delicate fish dishes such as scallops with a hint of dill, vanilla and a light emulsion sauce, steamed prawns, hot oysters with julienne vegetables, or a langoustine carpaccio…
For dessert, it is just the thing with pulpy citrus fruit, tender exotic fruit (pineapple, mango, lychee) or fruit tarts, and with all the lightest textures and freshest flavours.
The buttery character of the Chardonnay requires that it be served chilled but not ice-cold, ideally at 10 to 11 °C.

Available in bottles.
