Forget Brimont 1er Cru Brut Terroir Champagne - 75cl

Champagne Forget Brimont is a small producer of Champagne located in Craon de Ludes. 6th Generation Champenoise Michel Forget is the current owner and winemaker and the estate can trace it roots back to the early nineteenth century when his ancestor, Louis, first created vineyards in the area.

The Champagne Forget Brimont brand was established in 1920 by another relative, Eugène.

Brut Terroir is a non-vintage Champagne made from a blend of 40% Pinot Noir, 40% Meunier, 20% Chardonnay, aged for 3 years prior to release.

The grapes come from a Selection of the finest terroirs of the Montagne de Reims, including Premier Cru: Ludes, Chigny-les-Roses, Montbré, Taissy Grand Cru: Mailly-Champagne, Verzenay, Verzy.

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected, followed by a delicate pressing of whole bunches. Only the 'cuvée', from the first juices extracted, is used.

The alcoholic fermentation is carried out in temperature controlled stainless steel vats at a low temperature (17°C-20°C) to preserve the finesse of the aromas.

Subsequently, the malolactic fermentation occurs, imparting balance and roundness to the wine. The secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle in their cellars, 15 metres underground, at a constant temperature of 11°C - ideal conditions for the development of fine, persistent bubbles and a lasting effervescence.

The perfect Champagne for an aperitif, this alluring cuvée also pairs exquisitely with creamy white meats or tender veal medallions served with julienned vegetables.

Nose: Delicate, fresh aromas, showcasing a remarkable complexity.

Palate: The crisp freshness of green apple is prominent at first, followed by subtle notes of apricot and white peach.

Finish: The wine is beautifully balanced, with a long and elegant finish.
