It reveals a beautiful aromatic complexity and a texture of great finesse. A perfect cuvée for lovers of balanced, expressive champagnes.

Prolonged aging for a unique expression

Brut de Castelnau is crafted with patience and exacting standards. Its blend combines :

• 40% Chardonnay - Provides freshness, tension and elegance.
• 40% Meunier - Gives fruity aromas and a gourmet texture.
• 20% Pinot Noir - Provides structure and depth.

Grapes are selected for their ability to express ripeness and intense aromatic richness. This cuvée rests for at least 5 years in the cellar, a precious time that allows the aromas to blend harmoniously and the texture to reach a perfect unctuousness.

The dosage of 7 g/L balances the cuvée, adding a touch of roundness without masking the wine's purity.
