Besserat de Bellefon

Blanc de Blancs | Bottle 75cl

Description

The Blanc de Blancs cuvée from Maison Besserat de Bellefon is an ideal champagne for special occasions. Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, it is the perfect accompaniment to light dishes and fish.

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 the champagne to retain a certain acidity and brightness on the palate.

The color is very pure. Its bright yellow hue reveals a fine, elegantly discreet mousse.

The first nose is very fresh, offering notes of citrus and white flowers, among which acacia and honeysuckle can be distinguished. On the second nose, delicious toasty aromas appear.

The attack on the palate is very mineral, giving this cuvée a pleasant freshness, whose structure blends beautifully with nuances of dried fruit and honey. The finish is light and beautifully persistent.
