Brut Champagnes: Hurier-Jouette Grand Cru, Ruinart, Malard Premier Cru...
Fruity and delicate, this Cuvée Extra Brut Champagne from Paul Berthelot is made from 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir grapes from Premier Cru vineyards. Its colour is clear with a subtle yellow tinge, and its aromas are robust with vegetal notes reminiscent of fern and herbal tea, evolving towards a bouquet of ripe honeyed fruit. On the palate, this champagne is well-structured and very smooth from the outset, with flavours of apple, pear and redcurrant tinged with subtle notes of menthol and aniseed. It has a lovely, long finish. Dosage 4g/litre. 12,5°. Serve at 8°C.
Chassenay d'Arce champagnes are an expression of the terroir of the Côte des Bar. Located in the south of the Champagne region, this vineyard is made up of Jurassic hillsides on Kimmeridgian limestone, interspersed with small green valleys. This varied terroir, with its many different exposures, produces light wines made mainly from Pinot Noir grapes, sought after by some of the great houses to bring freshness to their cuvées. This straightforward, spontaneous Champagne Blanc de Noirs is made from around 89% Pinot Noir, which gives it structure and power, 8% Chardonnay and 3% Pinot Meunier. It has a generous effervescence and a powerful, fruity palate, giving this champagne of character good balance.

This cuvée, emblematic of the house, stands out for its complexity and classic character. It is made from around 62% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay and 1% Pinot Blanc. Remarkable for its generosity and finesse, it is both consensual and well-balanced. The nose is very expressive and delicate, revealing the power of the pinot noir with aromas of small red and yellow fruits, balanced by the harmonious freshness of the chardonnay. On the palate, it is full-bodied and unctuous, offering an indulgence that perfectly matches the richness of the nose.
