The production of the half-bottle of Rive Droite Gamet
The Rive Droite cuvée in half-bottles is a blend of 85% Meunier and 15% Pinot Noir, sourced from family vineyards located on the right bank of the Marne, in the iconic terroirs of Damery and Fleury-la-Rivière. These soils, a blend of clay, limestone and sand, produce grapes with beautiful aromatic expression and characteristic freshness. Among the vineyard sites in these vineyards are Bas-Bauchets, Russelets-mal-tournés and La Fontaine du Curé.
To guarantee the complexity and aromatic depth of this cuvée, 40% of reserve wines are incorporated into the blend. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, preserving the freshness of the aromas. Malolactic fermentation brings roundness and balance. After five months of aging in stainless steel vats, the champagne is aged on slats for at least 20 months. With a dosage of 4 g/L, this Extra Brut champagne embodies purity and elegance.
