Description
What kind of wine is it
Aurore Casanova Champagne Grand Cru Les Petites Vignes Extra Brut is an authentic expression of Pinot Noir, crafted according to the strict principles of the Traditional Method. This wine appears in the glass with a bright straw yellow colour, enhanced by a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, the bouquet reveals fragrant fruity aromas that precede a linear and clean palate. The Extra Brut dosage outlines a dry and precise profile, offering an intense and balanced sip that fully enhances the quality of the grapes.
Where does it come from
This Champagne originates from the renowned soils of Puisieulx, a commune classified as Grand Cru located in the heart of the region. In this specific terroir, the Aurore Casanova winery cultivates its vines while respecting the unique characteristics of the landscape. Belonging to this prestigious winegrowing area ensures optimal agronomic conditions, allowing the wine to express a profound connection with the land and a rigorous geographical identity, elegantly defined in every glass.
How is it produced
Vinification faithfully follows the rules of the Traditional Method, which involves secondary fermentation in the bottle. Careful ageing on the lees gives the wine remarkable structure and deep harmony on the palate, supporting its fruity aromatic expression. The choice of a low sugar dosage results in a dry and decisive drink, highlighting the integrity of the fruit. Every stage of production is calibrated to maintain the tension of the sip and ensure a clear and persistent tasting experience.

It is based on unique terroirs that will be certified organic in 2023: Puisieulx in the Montagne de Reims: mainly Pinot Noirs (from massal selection or clones) and Chardonnays that grow on silt resting on hard limestone.
Mesnil-sur-Oger and Oger in the Côte des Blancs: 22 plots with almost as many exposures! What they have in common, however, is Chardonnay grown on chalky subsoil with fine brown earth or chalky colluvium on the surface.
Champvoisy in the Marne Valley: a brown Marne soil on hard limestone that allows the Meunier to express itself.
This diversity of terroirs and grape varieties is interpreted thanks to the observation and contemplation that guide Aurore and JB both in the vineyard and in the cellar. Read more
