Description
Champagne Alfred Gratien Brut Classique is produced with grapes from the Côte des Blancs region and carefully selected to create unsurpassed cuvées since 1864.
After the grapes are harvested, the vinification takes place entirely in 228-liter oak barrels. The micro-oxygenation favored by the wood represents the distinctive character together with the conservation of acidity guaranteed by the absence of malolactic fermentation. The stay on the lees is at least four years before disgorgement.
Bright yellow with a fine perlage, it has notes of lemon, white flowers accompanied by butter and soft hints of custard. With a clean and velvety sip, it offers a perfect balance between sweet tones and pleasant minerality, both integrated into a strong taste and a full finish.
A great olfactory-gustatory versatility makes it suitable for all occasions, especially for aperitifs and for dishes in which the balance between sweet and bitter dominates.
