Champagne Style

The making of a classic

Brut champagnes are the classic white champagne style and are created using a blend of chardonnay, pinot noir and meunier grapes. This gives the champagne a straw-like color with hints of gold and a pleasing dry taste.

Winemaking

Defined by the assemblage

In the initial stages, making brut is not dissimilar to making still wine. The differences come at the assemblage stage, where base wines from multiple vintages are blended, creating the consistent house champagne taste; and during the second period of fermentation, when the effervescence emerges.

Taste

One style, many tastes

Chardonnay grapes provide acidity and delicate citrus notes, while dark-skinned pinot noir and meunier grapes impart body and berry flavors. Each of our six maisons has its own unique style of NV brut, ranging from fresh and accessible to intricate and abundant.
