Brut Millésime 2016 Description

Description

Eyes : golden in colour with amber highlights, the wine displays a fine and elegant effervescence in the glass.

Nose : The nose fresh and remarkably refined, the bouquet opens with generous aromas of red fruits, evoking cherry, pomegranate, fresh strawberry and even strawberry tart. Hints of black fruits, such as blackberry and blueberry, add further depth and richness. With aeration, more subtle notes of melon, blond tobacco, dried flowers and orange blossom emerge, bringing complexity and elegance.

Palate : The mouth despite ten years of ageing, the palate impresses with its remarkable freshness. The attack is lively and elegant, driven by vibrant red fruit flavours, particularly fresh strawberry. As the tasting unfolds, indulgent confectionery notes reminiscent of strawberry sweets, along with hints of rhubarb tart, come to the fore. Fine and elegant, the palate maintains a beautiful acidic tension throughout. The finish is long, vibrant and persistent, revealing notes of citrus fruits, clementine and grapefruit, complemented by a delicate chalky minerality.

Brut Millésime 2016 Food pairings

Food pairings

This vintage captivates with its harmonious richness and remarkable vibrancy. It can be enjoyed both as an aperitif, paired with refined canapés, and at the table alongside delicate seafood dishes. Shellfish, particularly langoustines, will elegantly highlight its finesse. It also pairs beautifully with oysters and a variety of fish.
However, it is with fish served in a rich, generous sauce that this champagne truly reveals its full potential. Its freshness and vibrant acidity perfectly balance the richness of the dish, creating a subtle harmony and an exceptionally refined tasting experience.
