Pinot-Chevauchet Précieuse. Beautiful Blend of Pinot-Chevauchet from Champagne, France. A precious blend of 50% Pinot Meunier and 50% Chardonnay, all in Premier Cru enhances this Champagne. The yellow colour with green glints reveals fine and regular bubbles. Malolactic fermentation was partially carried out. Rich nose with vanilla aromas. A slightly sour mouth with delicate flavours. A very subtle wine. A gem

TIME, FOR QUALITY AND SUSTAINABILITY

Pinot-Chevauchet is located in Moussy; a village of about 700 inhabitants in Coteaux Sud d’Epernay, 4 kilometres from Epernay . Pinot-Chavauchet has 4 hectares of land spread over 27 plots on one hill (Moussy/ Pierry premier cru). Didier is the 4th generation independent champagne maker. They work in a nature-conscious way (HVE) and use as little sulphites and malolactic fermentation as possible. Instead, they let the champagnes mature longer sur lee; at least 5 years! Of the eight champagnes they produce, we have chosen to import as many as six exclusively. Pinot Chevauchet is a Recoltant-Manipulant winemaker, which means the entire process of making champagne is done by his family; working in the vineyard, harvesting and pressing the grapes, letting the wine ferment all the way through to bottling, aging in the cellars and sales.

Pinot Meunier: a blue grape of reasonable to good quality and is a mutation of the very well-known Burgundian grape Pinot Noir. The name refers to flour (and miller) because the leaves of the grape almost appear to be dusted with a layer of flour due to the hair present. Is very suitable for making sparkling wines and thrives in relatively cool wine-growing climates. Is the most planted grape in Champagne and makes an indispensable contribution to most Champagne blends. Also called farineux noir or noirin enfariné in France. In Germany the grape is known as müllerrebe or schwarzriesling and in southern Germany (Württemberg and Baden) it produces light and soft red wines with a mild fruitiness. The grape has also been planted in Austria (blaue postitsch-traube) and in the former Yugoslavia.

Chardonnay: the grape of white Burgundy and Champagne, and is planted all over the world. Delivers good to very good wine with a full, dry taste. Chardonnay is a grape that does not have an unambiguous character, which depends on the terroir (soil and climate) and the method of wine making. Chardonnay lends itself very well to maturing in wooden barrels.
