The Chardonnay Brut Millésimé Grand Cru from the Corbon winery represents a superb expression of the elegance and sophistication of Champagne. Produced with 100% Chardonnay grapes sourced from Grand Cru classified vineyards in the acclaimed Côte des Blancs region, this cuvée is a tribute to purity and precision.

The selected harvest for this millésimé, or specific vintage, allows for the full potential of an exceptional year to be expressed. The winemaking process is meticulously controlled to ensure that the distinctive character of the grapes and terroir is fully reflected in the glass. Prolonged aging on the lees in Corbon's underground cellars adds complexity and depth to this champagne expression.

On the nose, Corbon's Chardonnay Brut Millésimé Grand Cru opens with lively notes of citrus and white-fleshed fruits, followed by hints of white flowers and toasted bread, evidence of the quality of the fermentation. On the palate, the finesse of the bubbles combines with raw freshness and an elegant structure. The palate is clean, with an intense minerality and a long, persistent finish that invites another sip.

Served chilled, this Champagne is ideal as an aperitif or paired with refined dishes like oysters, fish tartare, or even a delicate white truffle risotto. Its elegance makes it perfect for special celebrations or as a prestigious gift for wine lovers.

The Chardonnay Brut Millésimé Grand Cru from Corbon is not only a symbol of celebration but also a true testament to the craftsmanship and quality behind the production of an exceptional Champagne.
