This special bottle was created in honor of the Brut Original. The young wine is assembled from different varieties after tasting. It is in the bottle that the wine’s slow evolution gives birth to the precious mousse, with golden hinted robe wherein lie the majestic strings of delicate bubbles. On the palate the aromas of toast, honey and fresh fruits are perfectly balanced. This sparkling wine is soft and full, powerful as long on the finish. It’s delicious all through a meal even with exotic dishes like sushi or tempura. It also accompanies desserts such as cheesecake, or fruits pie.

Vineyard

The region’s climate is a well balanced mixture of Mediterranean and Atlantic influences, giving rise to hot, sunny days followed by cool nights, allowing the development of a grape fully healthy and mature. These conditions help create a perfect acid-sugar balance, a fundamental element in the taste of sparkling wines. Mauzac and Chenin are grown on the granular chalk-limestone well watered soil and the Chardonnay and the Pinot in deeper soil with more humidity. Date of harvest is end of August, beginning of September : an early hand-picking to ensure a good acid-sugar balance and transportation in small crates to avoid squashing the grapes.
