Perfume At first nose, the wine reveals aromas of white flowers (honeysuckle, lilac), citrus notes as well as fresh butter and cream. After aeration, as it gets warmer, this Champagne exudes another spectrum of aromas. The wine reveals spicy notes of ginger, lemongrass, hitherto unsuspected.
Taste The beautiful quality of the acidity (present throughout the tasting) is particularly remarkable. The finish is clean, slightly mineral and long. The last aroma is grapefruit. The impression will be remembered as a harmonious, healthy and vibrant wine.
Pairings This wine pairs well with soft and creamy in texture meals. Fish such as sole or turbot with a mild sauce, fine crustaceans such as prawns or oysters are suggested. This champagne can also be tasted for aperitif.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1890
A family business for five generations, Vilmart is driven by unique intuition, a taste for precision and a certain form of freedom.

In 1890, Désiré Vilmart founded the house in the heart of the village of Rilly-la-Montagne, at the foot of the Montagne de Reims. He was succeeded by his son Charles, then his grandson Renan. They were both instrumental in furthering the house’s growth. Independence and boldness were already characteristic of the house’s outlook.

During the Second World War, Renan witnessed the destruction of the estate. With courage and determination, he applied himself to reconstructing buildings and facilities over cellars that had been spared; Vilmart still occupies these premises, which have been developed and added to by each successive generation.
