The production of Louis Nicaise Brut Millésime 2019 champagne

The Brut Millésime 2019 cuvée is a blend of 55% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, and 15% Pinot Meunier. The grapes come from the iconic Hautvillers terroir in the historic heart of Champagne. These plots, rooted in clay-limestone soils, give the wine its minerality and aromatic richness.

This cuvée is vinified and aged mainly in stainless steel vats, which preserve the freshness and brightness of the aromas. One-third of the wines undergo no malolactic fermentation, adding beautiful tension and vibrant liveliness. The champagne is then aged in the cellar, where it develops its complexity before being dosed as Extra Brut to achieve perfect balance.

The 2019 vintage

The year 2019 offered exceptional weather conditions in Champagne. After a mild and rainy spring, the hot and sunny summer allowed the grapes to ripen optimally. The berries, concentrated and perfectly balanced, are distinguished by their aromatic intensity and natural freshness. This vintage, marked by beautiful tension and remarkable elegance, is a real success for the wines of Hautvillers.
