About the Wine
There’s nothing quite like that pop of a champagne cork to instantly make you feel like celebrating. Even if it's for simply reaching the end of your day. This Grande Tradition Brut is the perfect bottle to keep on hand so you can celebrate whenever the mood strikes you. Besserat de Bellefon uses grapes from the finest locations in the region. Perfectly balancing the power of Pinot Noir, the fruitiness of Pinot Meunier, and the finesse of Chardonnay to create a mouthwatering bubbly that is sure to impress.
Edmond Besserat founded Besserat Champagne in 1843. The historic Bellefon Château is world-renowned, in Épernay, in the heart of the Champagne region.
Edmond Besserat, a grandson of the founder, married Yvonne de Meric de Bellefon, who came from another prestigious Champagne family, and the house of Besserat de Bellefon Champagne was born.
This classic (non-vintage) Champagne is produced from wines from a combination of the current vintage and previous vintages (reserve wines), rather than a single year. This wine has a long sur lie aging on the lees that give a lovely toasty oak and brioche quality. The art of blending wines from several vintage years ensures that there is consistently a high-quality, elegant wine in every bottle.
Tasting note: Sparkling Wine. 45% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir, 20% Pinot Meunier. Bright yellow in color shimmering with an abundance of tiny bubbles. Toast, Mirabelle plum and green apple notes on the nose with a fresh yet structured impact on the palate with notes of strawberry, cranberry, and honey. Leaving you with a long and powerful finish.
