Augustin

Cuvée Air | Bottle 75cl

Description

Marc Augustin's cuvée Air is a champagne that represents this soft, fine element. Air makes life possible, but remains elusive.

The world of Maison Augustin cuvées was inspired by biodynamic viticulture and inspired by Marc's wife, Emmanuelle. The identity, the names, the colors, the materials: everything is done in coherence with the Maison's philosophy.

This cuvée is made from 50% Pinot Noir from Avenay Val d'Or, a Premier Cru terroir on the Montagne de Reims, characterized by its clay-loam soils, and 50% Chardonnay from Vertus, a Premier Cru on the Côte des Blancs, with clay-limestone soils.

Both viticulture and vinification are carried out according to biodynamic principles, in harmony with the phases of the moon, and the wines are the product of controlled dynamization. Like the Domaine's other cuvées, the wine is not dosed, and the yeast is extracted from the previous year's lees, without filtration.

This Air cuvée is soft, fine and harmonious, with a finesse on the palate and a lightness that tantalizes the taste buds.
