ÉLABORATION
L’élevage prolongé sur lies fines après la fermentation alcoolique apporte rondeur et souplesse. La fraicheur et la vivacité initiale du terroir calcaire-alluvionnaire sont préservées par l’absence de fermentation malolactique. Enfin, l’élevage sur latte de minimum 30 mois apporte de la richesse aromatique et de la longueur en bouche.
Caractérisée par un faible dosage de liqueur d’expédition (4 g/L), cette cuvée comblera les amateurs de vins vifs, qui y retrouveront l’expression du vin dans sa nature originelle.
DEGUSTATION
Robe or pâle à la bulle très fine. L'effervescence est délicate et persistante. C’est un Champagne qui dévoile des notes gourmandes et pâtissières, on y découvre des arômes délicats de vanille et d’amandes fraiches. Le second nez dévoile des arômes plus riches et beurrés évoquant la frangipane et la brioche.
L’attaque en bouche mêle vivacité et souplesse. Au palais, les arômes gourmands découverts au nez se confirment, évoluant en milieu de bouche sur des notes plus fruitées qui évoquent la poire, la mandarine et les fruits compotés. Cette cuvée toute en rondeur et finesse est portée par une grande fraicheur. En fin de bouche, nous profitons d’une belle persistance aromatique.
What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
