Le Charpenté
Le Charpenté is a Pinot Noir champagne: 81% Pinot Noir and 19% Chardonnay, 56% of it from Ambonnay on the south-eastern Montagne de Reims. This cuvée also belongs to the "Influences" series and is dosed low so that grape variety and origin take centre stage. The nose shows spice, curry and black cherries. On the palate it is harmonious and fresh, with citrus, fresh apples and clear minerality, carried by the ripeness of the Pinot Noir.
With this structure it can handle heartier dishes: foie gras, a piece of lamb or creamy cheese such as Brillat-Savarin all work well. Serve it at 10 to 12 degrees in a wide-bowled white wine glass so that spice and dark fruit can unfold.
