Wine Description
The Story
This champagne represents the "Unique" selection of Gremillet. The "Unique" selection champagnes of Gremillet are incomparable, even exceptional. Only excellent vintages or particular vinification techniques can produce unique champagnes.
Blend: 100% Chardonnay (oaked)
Its gentle vinification in oak makes for more aromatic complexity while at the same time preserving the freshness of the Chardonnay
Blending: 4 vintages. This Champagne is composed of only the cuvée (first press). Selection of our best chardonnay.
Fermentation: Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in oak barrels for 6 months.
Ageing 4 years minimum.
Dosage: Brut at 7 gr/l with a «liqueur d’expédition» coming from finished bottles of Champagne.
Tasting notes: Charming pale golden color with silvery glints. Bright, luminous and limpid. A creamy mousse rim with fine, delicate bubbles. The nose is an invitation to enter an unfamiliar, esoteric world of flowers, spices and an exotic canopy which should be slowly inhaled in order to take in the subtlety of the aromas. The taste, instantly seductive, is well-balanced and harmonious showing both its vivacious nature and great mellowness. Licorice, vanilla, warm biscuit and oaky notes all blend together on the finish for an instant of pure bliss. The taste is just what one would expect, in itself an Evidence!
Pairing: The perfect match would be the delicate flesh of scallops, fine fowl or a free-range chicken.
