Description
Brut Champagne made using the classic method, produced by Vranken Champagne. 1.50L magnum format. A floral and frivolous effervescence born from the passion of Madame Pommery, who founded one of the most important Champagne houses in 1858. The aromas are intense, fresh, and complex, with vegetal (grass, dried ferns) and woody (humus) notes. Straw yellow with amber highlights. A broad palate with aromas of candied fruit (fig and plum) and gastronomic flavors of pastries (milk bread) with a slightly musky finish.

In Champagne, Vranken grows more than 270 hectares of vines planted with the three traditional champagne varietals: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
With a traditional champagne blend from his supply, Cellar Director Dominique Pichart makes champagnes that are cheery and vibrant, for every moment in life.
Calcareous soil, a significant storehouse of heat, and the climate, alternating between gentle Atlantic influences and rugged Continental characteristics, are what make for unique champagne-growing territory.
The vines are tended throughout the year, and, as Winter draws to a close, the plants are pruned and only the most promising shoots are left to grow. These branches are guided so that the sun can reach the grapes and help them grow to full ripeness.
The grapes are harvested exclusively by hand, so that the best bunches can be selected and kept intact. The harvesters work on all the vines used for Vranken. These vines are planted primarily in Grands Crus villages and are used to produce more than 4 million bottles of Vranken champagne each year. Read more
