A. Chauvet Brut Blanc De Blancs Cache Vert G Cru
| Description: | For the Chauvet, harmony in champagne is not just important, it is elemental. As such, they are regional champions of the art of blending Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and they take an unabashedly classical approach in the vineyards and in the cellars. Farming their familys 10 hectares sustainably in five of the Montagne de Reimss 17 grand crusBouzy, Ambonnay, Verzy, Verzenay and Bisseuil one feels a complex synergy to the final wines where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Long fermentations and extended levages on the lees help develop complexity and fine aromatics, while also radically reducing the need for sulfur and eschewing the need for malolactic fermentations. In the end, their harmony in both their partnership and practice yields elegant, earthy and aromatic champagnes with a fine, satiny mousse that dances across the palate. That they are also capable of long cellar aging is a fitting legacy for a family who has endured since 1848, and whose family home in Tours-sur-Marne features an immaculately preserved salon, dating to the early 1900's. |
