Girard Bonnet

A mi-chemin | Bottle 75cl

Description

Paul Girard's cuvée A Mi-Chemin is a Blanc de Blancs that reaches a point of perfect balance. The freshness of the Côte des Blancs Chardonnay is perfectly balanced by the ripeness of the grapes and a touch of wood.

This is a champagne that marries two Grand Cru terroirs of the Côte des Blancs. On the one hand, Mesnil-sur-Oger, whose chalky soil brings great tension to the wine, and on the other, Oger, which gives it more roundness and generosity.

Vinification takes place in stainless steel vats (75%), whose neutrality favors fresh, floral aromas, while the 25% wood brings out a fuller, more gourmet aroma.

Domaine Girard-Bonnet's cuvée A Mi-Chemin is a champagne that opens with a fairly rich nose, a richness and roundness brought by the Oger terroir. On the palate, the attack is taut and straightforward, with a long, mineral framework provided by Le Mesnil. The finish is elegant and slightly iodized.

A very fine cuvée to discover as an aperitif or with the start of a meal.
