Description
What kind of wine it is
The Champagne 1er Cru Extra Brut Les Hautes Vignes Le Mont Benoit by Emmanuel Brochet is an exceptional blend composed of Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay. Crafted according to the principles of the Traditional Method, this Champagne displays a straw yellow colour and a very fine perlage. On the nose, it combines fruity aromas with spicy notes, leading to a rigorous Extra Brut palate, where a pronounced minerality and a deep creamy texture prevail.
Where it comes from
The soul of this wine is inextricably linked to the Champagne region. The grapes originate from the Les Hautes Vignes and Le Mont Benoit vineyards, plots renowned for their extraordinary winemaking vocation. The Premier Cru designation attests to the high quality of the area, capable of imparting a distinctive tension and savouriness to the palate. Strict organic management preserves the natural balance of the vineyard, enhancing the most authentic minerality of the French terroir.
How it is produced
The creation of this cuvée is the result of bottle refermentation, an essential process for developing its complex structure. The low dosage is designed to highlight the purity of the fruit in its most natural expression. Ageing on the lees melds the spicy nuances and gives the wine a continuous perlage, offering a tasting experience of utmost elegance, perfect for those who prefer the clarity of a dry, vertical and precise sip.
