Description
The Camille Savès Carte d'Or Grand Cru champagne is an exquisite cuvée that embodies the richness and elegance of its noble terroir. This champagne is composed of 75% Pinot Noir Bouzy Grand Cru and 25% Chardonnay Bouzy Grand Cru, sourced from approximately 12 plots in the Bouzy terroir.
Winemaking
The grapes are hand-picked in the vineyard to ensure optimum ripeness, then gently pressed to extract only the best first-press musts. The must is cold clarified before undergoing a first thermoregulated fermentation at 18ºC, without malolactic fermentation. The wine rests on its lees for 7 months in stainless steel tanks, and is blended with 25% of reserve wines before bottling.
Ageing is carried out at a constant natural temperature of 10ºC in underground cellars, and it ages in the bottle on the lees for a minimum of 4 to 5 years before disgorging and final dosage of 5 grams per litre of sugar (Extra Brut).
Taste
Camille Savès Carte d'Or Grand Cru has golden tones and fine, lively bubbles, with very pronounced aromas of red fruits and brioche. On the palate, this cuvée is fresh and vinous, with a distinctive, structured and balanced mouthfeel, marked by a stone fruit flavour. Its flavour is fruity, ample, light, with a hint of acidity that provides a delicious aftertaste.
