Besserat de Bellefon

Cuvée des Moines Brut | Bottle 75cl

Description

The Cuvée des Moines Brut from Maison Besserat de Bellefon is a delicious nectar whose generosity makes it perfect for cocktail parties. Made from three traditional Champagne grape varieties, Pinot Meunier (45%), Chardonnay (35%) and Pinot Noir (20%), this champagne combines elegance and intensity.

Unique in its kind, Maison Besserat de Bellefon uses a very distinctive winemaking process. By choosing to reduce the quantity of liqueur de tirage (the liqueur that allows the second fermentation to take place), it has succeeded in reducing the size of the bubbles by 30%. The lighter mousse gives its champagnes a very pleasant creamy and smooth character. This smoothness is complemented by the House's characteristic freshness. The absence of malolactic fermentation allows a certain acidity and brightness to be maintained on the palate.

The bright straw-yellow color is enhanced by coppery highlights. The mousse formed by the fine bubbles creates a delicate creamy cord.

The first nose opens with aromas of dried flowers. Then, in a second phase, fruity aromas of mirabelle plum and peach appear and fade before giving way to toasted praline notes.

On the palate, freshness and creaminess combine, symbolizing the style of the House. Fragrances of fresh fruit such as apricot, pineapple, and vine peach can be distinguished. The finish is exquisitely long, heralding a bright future.
