Description
What kind of wine it is
The Champagne Boreal Brut Nature by Clandestin is a rigorous expression of its own terroir. Produced using the Traditional Method, it enhances Pinot Noir in a dry and linear sip. In the glass, it reveals a straw yellow colour and a fine perlage. On the nose, it offers fruity aromas and clear mineral notes, while on the palate it is fresh, complex and harmonious, ensuring a clean and technically precise drink.
Where it comes from
This wine originates from the renowned Champagne region. The roots of the project are found in the terroir of Buxières-sur-Arce, an area that gives the glass a distinct mineral imprint. The production is the result of collaboration between winemakers Bertrand Gautherot and Benoît Doussot, expert connoisseurs of this specific area. Their agricultural approach aims to convey the purity of the soil, reflecting a defined, authentic territorial identity that is strongly linked to the natural characteristics of the environment.
How it is produced
The process follows the strict steps of the Traditional Method, focusing on an essential style. The total absence of added sugars, typical of pas dosé wines, allows the Pinot Noir to show its original character. This technical choice keeps the freshness and linearity of the fruit intact. The absence of dosage structures a complex and harmonious gustatory progression, which ends with a clean finish, faithfully reflecting the rigorous and dry nature of the Champagne.
History and Curiosities
Born from the partnership between Bertrand Gautherot and Benoît Doussot, this Champagne celebrates the authenticity of Buxières-sur-Arce. Made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, this extraordinary classic method pas dosé captures the purest essence of the renowned French region. The absence of dosage enhances clear fruity aromas and a refined minerality, offering a fresh, complex and harmonious sip. This “blanc de noirs” expresses profound artisanal mastery rooted in an exceptional terroir, guaranteeing enthusiasts a truly pure sensory experience.
