Pascal Doquet Vertus Coeur de Terroir Brut Premier Cru 2009

Category:

Vintage Sparkling Wine from Champagne, France

Blend: 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir

Winemaker Notes

This Champagne is the first in Doquet’s “Coeur de Terroir” series and it comes from the chalk and clay soils from Pascal’s best sites in the mid-slope of Vertus – including lieux-dits Barrilliers, Nuisats, Vieille Voie, Corvées, Grange au Bar, Les Grues & La Bare (for the Pinot Noir). The wine is a blend of 70% chardonnay with 30% Pinot Noir, all vinified and aged for an additional 11 months in neutral oak barrel. After bottling the wine was aged for 12 years sur latte before disgorgement with a dosage of 2.0g/L MCR. It’s a full-bodied Champagne from this site with leesy richness and length.

Food Pairing

Pairs well with shellfish, lobster, crab, and a variety of cheeses.
