Champagne brut L'Orée des chênes
Champagne created with the three grape varieties of the Champagne region
Chardonnay: 45%.
The only white grape of the three, it contributes elegance and finesse, while adding citrus notes.
Pinot Meunier: 35%.
This provides Champagne with both freshness and lightness. Notable for a bouquet that's intense and full of fruit, Pinot Meunier brings a fullness to blendings. It develops more rapidly than the other two varieties.
Pinot Noir: 20%.
This variety brings complexity, vinosity, structure and aromas of red fruit.
Robe: golden yellow. Appearance: smooth, small bubbles with a light cordon.
Nose: ripe and elegant nose, delicate balance with citrus and mineral notes.
Mouth: well balanced, smooth palate followed by a satisfying intensity revealing notes of yellow fruit (lemon, pineapple) for a fresh finish.
Recommendations: ideal as an apéritif. A good match for pan-fried foie gras, veal terrine, saddle of rabbit and ray in butter, as well as fish in a range of sauces. It's equally appropriate at the end of a meal.
Serving temperature: between 7° and 8° C (ideal).
Blending: 2012/2013.
This cuvée benefits from the selection of our best years and has matured in our cellars (several months in oak for the Chardonnay).
