Winemaking notes
Driven by a new ambition and freedom, with the creation of Collection, we are writing the next chapter of our story. The times we live in; climate change and the importance of practising a sustainable viticulture that respects the living environment in order to fully express the qualities of the terroir, these are all factors that must be taken into account.
Collection Brut is an evolution in structure, form and style.
Viticultural notes
The grapes are harvested from 40 of the best and most diverse different vineyard plots from within Montagne de Reims and Cote de Blancs in the Champagne region. The grapes for Collection Brut are 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Meunier. Collection Brut also features a big increase in the presence of reserve wines in the final blend over its predecessor, Brut Premier.
Tasting notes
Delicate and elegant. Its reserve wines bring rich round flavors that make it vibrant, fresh and generous. From the outset, Brut Premier affirms its personality and seduction: the texture is full and generous and, in a fairly unexpected way, integrates characteristics of maturity associated with fruitier and more refreshing notes. The wine has a fresh festive finesse. In the mouth, the wine has structure, richness and length. It is a full, complex wine that is both modern and powerful, while remaining a great classic.
Pairing notes
Collection Brut can be served for many occasions. It is ideal as an aperitif due to its freshness and finesse. The structure also makes it a splendid accompaniment to fine cuisine. This lovely Champagne pairs beautifully with lobster or shellfish, honey and brioche, liver and white fruit (peaches and plums), as well as Terrine of foie gras with almond jelly.
