Brut Grande Tradition

The Brut Grande Tradition is the flagship of Besserat de Bellefon. Cellar master Cédric Thiebault blends it every year from around 40 different crus. The proportions are 45% Chardonnay, 35% Pinot Noir and 20% Meunier. The wine ages for at least 48 months in the house's cellars, and you can tell from its structure and depth.

The perlage is fine and persistent. The nose is expressive and floral. On the palate, strawberry and peach meet honey and a note of grilled bread. The champagne is powerful, well built and fresh, with a long, full finish. It works as an aperitif just as well as at the table, for instance with mushroom dishes, white meat, Norwegian lobster or grilled red mullet. Serve it at 8 to 10°C in a well-rounded white wine glass so that the aromas can unfold.
