The Pinot-Chevauchet 'Distinguee' Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut is a pure expression of 100% Chardonnay, sourced entirely from Premier Cru vineyards in Pierry and Moussy, Champagne. This multi-vintage Champagne is a blend of 70% base wine (e.g., 2014 or 2016) and 30% reserve wine (e.g., 2013 or 2015), showcasing the elegant terroir of Pierry. It undergoes extended aging, typically 5 to 7 years on the lees, followed by an additional year of rest in the bottle after disgorgement, contributing to its complexity and depth. With a very low dosage of 3.5 g/L, it is classified as Extra Brut, a deliberate choice to allow the terroir and grape variety to speak clearly. The winery, Champagne Pinot-Chevauchet, is an independent 'Grower Champagne' estate, meticulously tending its vineyards for over four generations. 【A benchmark Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut, highlighting the purity of Premier Cru Chardonnay with extended lees aging and minimal dosage】. Tasting notes describe a wine with a brilliant gold-yellow robe and fine, delicate bubbles. The nose reveals enticing notes of freshly baked brioche, mellow yellow fruits, citrus, and sometimes a hint of smoky reduction. On the palate, it offers a bright attack of lemon and dried fruits, complemented by honeyed accents, apples, and a distinctive minerality, often with oyster shell notes and a slightly salty finish. It is full, tasty, complex, and vibrant, with good length and a balanced texture. 🍴 Food pairing suggestions include seafood, oysters, fish carpaccio, tempura, semi-cooked foie gras, rich fish (like salmon or tuna), and mild and soft cheeses. Its crisp acidity and mineral profile make it an excellent aperitif or a versatile companion throughout a meal. 🥂 This Champagne is ideal for sophisticated aperitifs, celebratory brunches, or intimate dinners where fresh seafood is the star. Its elegant and precise character also makes it suitable for business celebrations or as a thoughtful gift for Champagne connoisseurs.
