Description

The Rive Droite Cuvée from Champagne Gamet is an expressive Blanc de Noirs, revealing fruity notes and a beautiful freshness. Perfect for an aperitif, it also pairs wonderfully with refined dishes thanks to its balance and minerality.

The Making of Rive Droite Gamet Champagne

The Rive Droite cuvée is composed of 85% Meunier and 15% Pinot Noir. The grapes come from the house vineyard located on the Right Bank of the Marne, in the terroirs of Damery and Fleury-la-Rivière. These terroirs feature clay-limestone and sandy soils that yield both expressive and acidic grapes. Renowned lieux-dits include Bas-Bauchets, Russelets-mal-tournés, and La Fontaine du Curé.

For this cuvée, 40% reserve wine is added, bringing additional complexity and depth. Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, a method that preserves the freshness of the aromas. Once malolactic fermentation is completed, the cuvée is aged in stainless steel tanks for 5 months to offer a beautiful aromatic expression, with fresh fruits and tension. It then benefits from at least 20 months of aging on the lees to refine its character. With a dosage of 4g/L, this Extra Brut champagne reveals itself as both pure and elegant.
