Description
The Cornalyne Champagne from the Dom Caudron maison is obtained entirely from Pinot Meunier grapes, and for this reason it could be called a Blanc de Noirs.
The production of this champagne is characterized by a manual harvest of the grapes and a vinification which takes place half in oak barrels: the latter are prepared with the Aquaflex method which involves the saturation of the wood in water so as to moderate the influence of the wood on the wine in order to preserve the freshness and fruit of the starting grape variety. This is followed by refermentation in the bottle and aging on the yeasts which lasts for 72 months.
It has a golden yellow color and a minute and persistent perlage. On the nose it reveals an elegant texture of woody notes, white flowers and ripe fruit. In the mouth it is pleasantly fresh, fine and complex.
Excellent in combination with oysters and white truffles, it is ideal in the company of mature cheeses.
