I certify that I am of legal ageThis cuvée, the result of a perfect balance between the three grape varieties, is an elegant, distinctive wine, combining structure, consistency and freshness. This champagne perfectly expresses all the power of Gardet’s two signature styles, combining modernity and tradition.
The Brut Réserve is characterised by the special ageing of the clear wines and by the very long time the bottles spend in the cellar. It is made up of a first blend of 75%, composed entirely of wines from the last harvest. The remaining 25% comes from reserve wines matured for a year in oak barrels.
AGEING: The reserve wines (25%) are aged in oak “foudres” for a minimum of 1 year. Then in bottle, on the lees, for 6 to 8 years.
The optimal serving temperature is between 6 and 8°C (46 to 50°F).
COLOUR: a brilliant honey-yellow colour.
NOSE: warm, marked by vinosity and freshness. Notes of pastry and brioche, yellow fruit (apricot) and a hint of caramel and spice.
PALATE: Lively and slender. Aromas of ripe yellow fruit (apricot tart), toasted brioche, hints of fig and a hint of floral and vegetal notes.
It can be enjoyed with roast poultry, grilled sea bass with summer vegetables, or veal chop with cream sauce and mushrooms.
