Vilmart et Cie Grande Réserve Low Dosage NV

<p>5th generation Laurent Champs has been leading this great estate since 1989 in the village of Rilly-la-Montagne, with 11ha of vineyards of larger parcels, spanning only to the neighbouring village. For over 30 years, extensive soil work through the use of organic and sustainable viticulture with no use of chemicals help to keep all vines and soils healthy. There is also much attention in the gravity-fed winery, where Laurent prefers the traditional Coquard press and oak barrels of many sizes for the fermentation (5500L, 600L, 228L), with malo avoided. To quote Laurent, &ldquo;I make wine first, and the bubbles afterwards.&rdquo; Many would agree that the wines in the Vilmart lineup have extraordinary class, finesse, &amp; elegance!</p>

Vilmart & Cie's Grande Réserve Low Dosage NV is a premier, oak-aged Champagne of remarkable depth. Crafted from 70-80% Chardonnay and 20-30% Pinot Noir from Premier Cru Rilly-la-Montagne vines, it undergoes full fermentation in neutral oak foudres and ages on lees for 10-12 months, followed by at least 3 years of bottle age. The minimal 3-4 g/L dosage defines its Extra Brut style. Tasting reveals a luminous gold wine with a rich nose of baked apple, brioche, and hazelnut. The palate is luxuriously creamy yet sharply focused by vibrant acidity and chalky minerality, leading to a long, dry, and saline finish. This complex, vinous Champagne transcends the NV category, offering a gastronomic experience that balances opulent texture with precise freshness.
