La Côte Faron
La Côte Faron belongs to the Lieux-dits series from Jacques Selosse, in which each cuvée expresses a site rather than a vintage. Here it is a plot in the village of Aÿ, planted with Pinot Noir. The champagne is a pure Blanc de Noirs, aged in oak barrels and bottled with a low dosage as Extra Brut. It is accordingly powerful, dense and structured, with the vinosity that marks out Pinot Noir from Aÿ.
The cuvée is extremely rare and has the potential for many years in the cellar. Drink it at 11 to 12 °C from a large white wine glass or Burgundy glass. It suits an aperitif, but it also accompanies a whole meal very well, for instance with sweetbreads, poultry in cream sauce, mushroom dishes or mature hard cheese.
