Description
In a nutshell:
A delightfully fresh and fruity Champagne with a touch of richness from a small, family owned house.
The lowdown:
This is a superb brut Champagne that's got lovely fresh, floral aromas which combine with characteristic sweet brioche overtones, balanced by peach skin and baked biscuit flavours which lead to a pleasingly crisp and citrus finish. The area around Les Riceys is towards the south of the Champagne region where Pinot Noir thrives. So it's no surprise that it makes up over thirds of the blend, with Chardonnay accounting for the rest. Only the first, lightest pressings are used, as is usual for fine Champagne. Classic slow second fermentation in bottle followed by maturing on the lees for at least 18 months before being disgorged and released for sale. This has long been one of our 'go to' Brut Champagnes and for good reason - it never fails to perform.
The Producer:
Champagne Gremillet, founded in 1979 by Jean-Michel Gremillet when he inherited a plot of vines, has grown into a substantial house with over 40 hectares of vineyards. Nestled in Balnot sur Laignes, just 45 kilometres from Troyes, the historic capital of the Champagne region, Gremillet's vineyards thrive on steep, sun-drenched hillsides where the Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils are perfect for their main plantings of Pinot Noir and a little Chardonnay. Their style is characterised by rich, fruit-forward flavours with classic baked biscuit notes.
When to drink:
Nicely chilled it's a great performer just on its own, but also pefect with light nibbles, salads and simple fish dishes.
Suitable for Vegetarians
