Brut Gold

The Brut Gold, known in the house as the Ace of Spades, brings together 40 per cent Pinot Noir, 40 per cent Chardonnay and 20 per cent Meunier from three different vintages. It was created at Cattier, and the brand also became well known through the rapper JAY-Z. In the glass it shines golden yellow. The nose offers peach, apricot and red fruit, then orange blossom and a hint of brioche. On the palate it is fruity and vinous, with pastry notes as it develops.

Drink it at 8 to 10 degrees from a wide white wine glass, which gives the aromas room. It goes with poultry, seafood and mature hard cheese just as well as it serves as a festive aperitif. It is ready to drink now, and in the cellar it can build its character further.
