Grand Millesime 2008 Brut J.Chopin

Julien Chopin Champagne house

Our house was founded in 1947 in the village of Monthelon, 6 km away from the capital of Champagne, Epernay.

Our vineyard is located in the Coteaux Sud of Epernay for our red grapes pinot meunier and pinot noir (in the villages of Monthelon, Mancy and Moussy) and in the Cote des Blancs for the Chardonnay (Chouilly, Cuis and Grauves villages). We grow our vines in the respect of traditions, combined with a modern system against diseases to protect the environment.

Tasting notes

The Champagne reveals a singular and strong raspberry pink hue, with ruby red highlights and violet shades.

His delicate foam is powered by very fine and light bubbles that feed delicate cordon round the edge of the glas.

First nose is delightfully embodied by red heady rose scent, mingled with scents of raspberry cream, peppermint. When aerated it evolves towards greedy notes of pomegranate, pink grapefruit, cherries.

The approach in the palate is soft and fresh with a creamy effervescence.

The Champagne develops into silky and round density of ripe red and black fruits with a tender caress of floral scent. Balance is sustained thanks to fresh acidity and a clay-limestone minerality giving vinosity precision.

Champagne finishes with fruity richness and floral delicacy providing us plenty of positives sensual vibrations.
