The Making of the Half-Bottle of Rive Droite Gamet

The Rive Droite cuvée in a half-bottle is made from a blend of 85% Meunier and 15% Pinot Noir, sourced from family vineyards located on the right bank of the Marne, in the iconic terroirs of Damery and Fleury-la-Rivière. These soils, a mix of clay, limestone, and sand, give rise to grapes with a beautiful aromatic expression and characteristic freshness. Among the lieux-dits of these vineyards are Bas-Bauchets, Russelets-mal-tournés, and La Fontaine du Curé.

To ensure the complexity and aromatic depth of this cuvée, 40% reserve wines are incorporated into the blend. Vinification is carried out in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, preserving the freshness of the aromas. A malolactic fermentation brings roundness and balance. After aging in stainless steel vats for 5 months, the champagne ages on the lees for at least 20 months. With a dosage of 4 g/L, this Extra Brut champagne embodies purity and elegance.
