Graceful golden colour with amber glints that reflect its extreme luminosity.
Bright, limpid with a rim of fine, creamy bubbles. Just like a breath of fresh air, the nose is distinctly delicate with aromas of crisp blossoms. It is reminiscent of a beautiful summer morning and garden scents. Aromas of dried fruits, hazelnut and almond with fine, herbaceous notes.
The taste is rich and luscious with a perfect balance between vivacity and mellowness. The Brut Zéro Dosage is ideal for a splendid wedding. With such a voluptuous finish how could it be anything less than Noble?
The Gremillet estate was founded by Jean-Michel Gremillet in 1979 when he inherited a plot of vines from his mother, Lulu. Today, the house possesses over 40 hectares of vineyards and is situated in a small village 45 kilometres from Troyes - the historic capital of Champagne - and 180 kilometres south of Reims. The vines lie on steep, sun-drenched hillsides in Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils. Pinot Noir is king here, and constitutes around 94% of Gremillet’s plantings, with the remainder dedicated to Chardonnay, ideal for creating a classic, baked biscuit, rich, fruit-flavoured Champagne.
The vineyards, situated in the southern reaches of Troyes achieve greater ripeness which leads to a richer fruit and classic baked biscuit flavours mixed with characteristic toasty yeast overtones. Only the first, lightest pressings are used, as is usual for fine Champagne. Classic slow second fermentation in bottle followed by maturing on the lees for at least 18 months before being disgorged and released for sale.
Serve this champagne with starters such as a small swim of crayfish tails with champagne, a cassolette of scallops, or a fresh foie gras with white peaches.
"Presenting the very essence of Champagne, an expression of authentic flavours."
