Approachable yet very proper vintage Champagne and perfectly expressing the very particular character of Pinot Noir from the Aube.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;The Gremillet estate was founded by Jean-Michel Gremillet in 1979 when he inherited a plot of vines from his mother, Lulu. Today, the house possesses over 40 hectares of vineyards and is situated in a small village 45 kilometres from Troyes – the historic capital of Champagne – and 180 kilometres south of Reims. The vines lie on steep, sun-drenched hillsides in Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils. Pinot Noir is king here, and constitutes around 94% of Gremillet’s plantings, with the remainder dedicated to Chardonnay, ideal for creating a classic, baked biscuit, rich, fruit-flavoured Champagne.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Vines are mainly planted in the Côte des Bars on limestone-clay soil on steep, sun-drenched hillsides. The first-press juice is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats (16° for the alcoholic and 18° for the malolactic) followed by secondary fermentation in bottle. The wine is then matured on lees for a minimum of 5 years, and disgorged with a 9g\/l ‘liquer de dosage’ made from their own finished wine.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Pair with rich fish dishes.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45130071015606,"sku":"12698","price":16.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/1251\/9862\/files\/gremilletchampagnebrutvintage_12698_01_ab32de0e_1ee93832-5b5e-4288-93cd-0b9cdefa50d7.jpg?v=1779031364","url":"https:\/\/noblebottle.com\/products\/gremilletchampagnebrutvintage-12698","provider":"noblebottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
