Winemaking :
Éclats is a blend of the three main grape varieties of Champagne, from selected terroirs. Chardonnay is in the majority, followed by the black varieties (Pinot Noir and Meunier) in equal proportions. The juice used comes from the first 2 greenhouses. The 1st fermentation takes place mainly in the wood. Éclats is an extra-brut with a dosage of 5g/litre (reserve wine and cane sugar), aged for 70 to 80 months on laths.
Tasting :
The aromas of Éclats are rich in white fruit, citrus, flowers, and notes of almond and toast. We recommend drinking it between 9 and 12 degrees to appreciate its creamy effervescence and lively freshness. Full-bodied aromas round off the wine, with a lively, saline finish offering refined complexity.
Pairing :
Éclats goes well with foie gras as a starter, white meats with citrus fruit as a main course. And soft cheeses such as Langres, Livarot or Munster at the end of the meal.
We make our cuvées without MLF, fining or filtration before bottling.
