Description

Bauget-Jouette Champagne Brut "Carte Blanche" NV

Bauget-Jouette Champagne Brut "Carte Blanche" is the most representative historical cuvée of their vineyard.

Grape Varietals & Region: 60% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Meunier and 10% Pinot Noir. The fruit comes from the south slopes of Epernay, Sézannais. The Chardonnay from Mancy and Sézannais associated with Pinot Meunier from Coteaux Sud d'Epernay bring fruitiness and elegance. Made of 40% reserve wines.

Taste Profile: Blond, straw-gold colour in the glass. Opens with a fresh and light nose of apples, pear and peaches. Rich mouthfeel with a tangy sweetness to match the aromas that follow through to the palate and emerging hints of almonds.

Winemaking Process: Vinification in Épernay, capital of Champagne, in the Bauget-Jouette cellars. It then rests at a constant temperature (11°C) in the cellars, which were dug in the 18th century at a depth of 27 meters in the chalk soils.
