The wine region of Champagne Grand Cru 'Mailly'
Grand Cru from the only 100%-classified village on the Montagne de Reims (~70 ha in Mailly-Champagne, north-facing slopes, Campanian chalky subsoil). Pinot Noir is the signature champagne variety (75%): rare saline mineral freshness with flowers (violet, fern), ripe fruits (yellow peach, apple), brioche and a grilled iodine finish. Taut Chardonnay (25%) as complement, oak fermentation, extended lees aging, velvety texture.
The wine region of Champagne
World benchmark sparkling wines: fine bubbles, citrusy tension, notes of brioche, toasted almond, white flowers and white-fleshed fruits after ageing on lees. Three grapes blended or solo: fleshy Pinot Noir (38%), fruity Meunier (33%), chiselled Chardonnay (28%). From straight Blanc de Blancs to vinous Blanc de Noirs, from non-vintage Brut to age-worthy Millésimé. AOC since 1927, 34,300 ha on chalk, 17 Grands Crus and 44 Premiers Crus.
The word of the wine: Ancestral method
A method of making certain sparkling wines such as blanquette de Limoux, sparkling gaillac or clairette de Die, which consists of a second fermentation in the bottle based on natural sugars and yeasts naturally brought by the grapes (unlike the méthode champenoise, which requires the addition of tirage liquor).
