The production of Rive Droite Gamet champagne

The Rive Droite cuvée is composed of 85% Meunier and 15% Pinot Noir. The grapes come from the estate's vineyards located on the right bank of the Marne, in the terroirs of Damery and Fleury-la-Rivière. These terroirs feature clay-limestone and sandy soils that produce grapes that are both expressive and beautifully acidic. They include renowned sites such as Bas-Bauchets, Russelets-mal-tournés, and La Fontaine du Curé.

For this cuvée, 40% reserve wine is added, bringing additional complexity and depth. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, a method that preserves the freshness of the aromas. Once malolactic fermentation is complete, the cuvée is aged in stainless steel vats for five months to develop beautiful aromatic expression, fresh fruit, and tension. It is then aged on slats for at least 20 months to refine its character. With a dosage of 4g/L, this Extra Brut champagne is both pure and elegant.
