Champagne Montaudon Brut NV

The champagne is a blend of 35% Pinot Noir, 25% Pinot Meunier, and 40% Chardonnay. The wine is given a dosage level of 8 g/l and is aged in the bottle for 3 years.

The champagne has a straw gold color with tiny bubbles. There are aromas of stony minerals, almonds, ripe berries with some soft citrus. On the palate there is a balance of fruit sweetness and nuttiness giving a roundness to it. The finish is dry with the sweet fruit notes continuing with some biscuit notes and the minerality. An easy drinking champagne.

Lady Elena Caviar and Champagne Pairing

O My Setra Caviar (Osetra): The mineral and creaminess of the Osetra caviar mixes nicely with the ripe berries and the nuttiness of the champagne and leaves a clean finish. A good Lady Elena Caviar and champagne pairing.
