About the wine
These vines were cultivated southwest of Reims 7 generations before Yann Alexandre. However, they have only been vinifying themselves for 3 generations. There has been really good champagne since Yann took over half of the family estate (6 hectares).
Item no. 1194575
Tasting note
Yann Alexandre gets its Brut Noir from its Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes, which together make up 60%. So only about 40% of this great champagne comes from white grapes (Chardonnay). It only extracts around 33,000 bottles from its 6 hectares. He sells the remaining grapes to (two of the most famous!) négociants manipulents (trading houses). It goes without saying that he reserves the better portion of the harvest for his cuvées. His wine radiates a refreshing, lively personality, has an extremely fine perlage, and on the palate, the subtle breed and the full-bodied melt create a stimulating dialogue.
Culinary recommendation
Goes well with aperitifs, seafood, saltwater fish.
Vinification
Alexandre ferments the young must in barriques and steel tanks. Without filtration and fining, the second fermentation takes place in bottles. His wines are of great brilliance, excellently balanced and extremely fine in their perlage. Only the best parts of its harvest are used. The rest of the grapes go on to the cooperative.
