Gardet Brut 1er Cru Blanc de Noirs 12.5%
Champagne, France
60% Pinot Noir, 40% Meunier, aged for at least 3 years in bottle on its lees, before disgorgement.
This champagne holds its own among Premier Cru, with the freshness and elegance that come of good stock. A wine with a specific, defined signature. A sure value in the Gardet line of champagnes, a reflection of the House’s savoir-faire.
The aroma comes on frankly fruity, with crushed grapes and stewed red berries
(strawberry, raspberry), fully ripened and with all their heady scents. Terribly smooth combined with a harmonious, sweet aromatic bouquet.
On the palate it is smooth and mild with a well balanced texture with structure, body and smoothness over on underlying freshness and vibrancy. A sense of balance and calm is obvious when tasting this champagne.
Perfect with aperitifs, duck with prunes, foie gras and other rich starters.
