The Cuvée des Moines Extra Brut from Maison Besserat de Bellefon is a champagne with a strong personality, whose minerality pairs perfectly with seafood platters. Made from only two grape varieties, Chardonnay (56%) and Pinot Noir (44%), it is a true source of freshness for the senses.
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 cordon.
On the nose, this mineral cuvée offers fresh citrus aromas. After aeration, iodine and empyreumatic (smoky, toasted) notes reveal themselves and show great elegance, supported by fragrances of dried fruit and macadamia nuts.
The attack on the palate is very fresh and lively, giving this cuvée a strong character. Delicately fruity, it reveals aromas of pear and quince, complemented by a subtle astringency. The finish is long and complex.
