Description
What kind of wine it is
Champagne Blanc De Meunier Brut Nature by Chavost is a wine crafted using the Traditional Method, offering a pure and authentic interpretation of Pinot Meunier. This sparkling wine stands out for its dry and rigorous profile, typical of the pas dosé style, which enhances its natural vinous character. The bouquet opens with notes of pear, apple and hawthorn, interwoven with elegant hints of small red fruits. On the palate, it reveals great breadth, faithfully echoing the aromatic structure and culminating in a long and persistent finish.
Where it comes from
The grapes are grown in France, from north-facing vineyards in the Champagne region, managed according to sustainable practices. The distinctive clay-limestone soils give the wine refined complexity and a pronounced gustatory tension. This terroir allows for a dry and defined character, enhancing the grape variety in all its integrity. The natural environment translates into a clear fruity component and a structure of excellent balance.
How it is produced
Production involves a rigorous manual harvest of the bunches. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel, where fermentations occur spontaneously thanks to the action of indigenous yeasts. To preserve the richness of the palate, the wine undergoes neither fining nor filtration. The prise de mousse follows the principles of the Traditional Method, ending with a zero dosage disgorgement that results in a dry, substantial wine with excellent ageing potential.
History and Curiosities
This Champagne from Chavost celebrates the authenticity of pure Pinot Meunier, cultivated according to organic principles. Produced using the classic pas dosé method, it stands out for its pure expression and absence of added sulphites, achieved through the use of indigenous yeasts. The bouquet offers hints of hawthorn, apple and pear, intertwined with notes of stewed red berries. On the palate, it is remarkably vinous and broad, culminating in a long and persistent finish that can evolve beautifully in the bottle for up to ten years.
