Description
What kind of wine it is
The Champagne Premier Cru Extra Brut Le Mont Benoit Villers Aux Noeuds by Frédéric Savart is a rigorous Traditional Method wine that combines the expressiveness of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. In the glass, it appears a golden straw yellow, enlivened by a fine and persistent perlage. The bouquet reveals clear notes of red fruits, green apple, almond and mineral hints. On the palate, it is dry and savoury, driven by an excellent minerality that defines and gives tension to the sip of this Extra Brut.
Where it comes from
This wine originates from the Premier Cru of Villers-aux-Nœuds, specifically the lieu-dit Le Mont Benoit, within the Champagne region. The estate follows a strict organic and sustainable approach, giving absolute priority to manual work and preventive care in the vineyard. This careful management keeps the ecosystem vibrant, allowing the grapes to convey in the glass the exact authenticity of the terroir through a distinctly dry, characterful and territorial imprint.
How it is produced
The process is based on the timings of the Traditional Method, with vinification and maturation designed to respect the original expression of the fruit, without forcing. The resulting blend ensures a remarkable ageing potential, estimated between 15 and 25 years. Served at an ideal temperature of 6-8 °C, the wine reveals a broad gastronomic versatility, balancing marine notes and proving excellent when paired with starters, shellfish, fish dishes and cheeses.
