Description

Champagne Philippe Gamet Rive Droite Brut NV

Grape Varietals & Region: Rive Droite is a blend of the terroirs of Damery and Fleury-la-Rivière. 60% Pinot meunier and 40% Pinot Noir. Damery is located on the edge of the marl, while Fleury-la-Rivière is located at the bottom of the valley, half-encircled by the forest. Very sunny sector, these terroirs appeal to Meunier & Pinot Noir! The soils are clay-limestone, sandy and marly.

Taste Profile: Champagne Gamet Rive Droite Brut is a fresh, fruity Champagne, underpinned by the roundness of Le Meunier and a creamy chewiness on the palate. It has a delicate aroma of white fruits and a lovely golden colour with fine effervescent.

Winemaking Process: Vinified in stainless steel vats and aged between 20 to 35 months.

Methode Champenoise

The key element of the traditional method is secondary fermentation in the bottle, often achieved by adding a liqueur de tirage to the base wine. The end result is a soft, fine bubly mouthfeel
