CHAMPAGNE GRAND CRU This champagne is the result of a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir Grands Crus.
Appearance A pale pink color with delicate bubbles and a pretty cordon of foam. Nose A subtle and gourmet aroma, a fine bouquet of raspberry and citrus zest notes, as well as small toasted and peppery notes. On the palate A beautiful round, melted and complex palate with delicate red berries and a few vanilla notes, followed by a great elegant return and a beautiful freshness. Pairing This rosé champagne is an ideal companion for aperitifs, but also for shellfish and crustaceans such as lobster and langoustines. It will also enhance a mullet dish, a veal blanquette and sweetbreads. For dessert, it will sublimate the flavors of red fruits.

Champagne Herbelet pays particular attention to the terroir and the wine we produce and is committed to revealing tradition and exception through the quality and finesse of our products. Our vineyard, cultivated in a sustainable way, is composed of 80% Chardonnay from the best wines of the Côte des Blancs (Avize, Oger, Cramant, Oiry). In the respect of the environment and for a sustainable viticulture, we work the soils, our yields are measured, always a manual harvest and a harvest at perfect maturity to offer you Champagnes of character and exception.
The world’s most famous sparkling wine, champagne, is ideal for every celebration. The Champagne vineyards and their hillsides are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Everything begins with a specific area of land which, thanks to human talent, produces the most original of wines. This talent ensures that the delicate characteristics of the land are expressed in champagne’s sublime effervescence. The same word to designate a region and the wine where it was born. Champagne only comes from Champagne.
Defined by a law dating from 1927, the area eligible to produce origin-approved (AOC) authentic champagne covers 34,000 hectares. The vineyards are divided into four large regions: Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, Côte des Blancs and the Côte des Bar.
PINOT NOIR CHARDONNAY PINOT MEUNIER
The Champagne vineyard today is predominantly planted to the black Pinot Noir and Meunier and the white Chardonnay. (Other approved varietals are together less than 0.3% of plantings).
The Pinot Noir accounts for 38% of planting.It is the predominant grape variety on the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Bar. It is the Pinot Noir that adds backbone and body to the blend, producing wines with distinctive aromas of red berries and good structure.
The Pinot Meunier accounts for 32% of planting. This robust grape variety is particularly well suited to the more argillaceous soils of the Marne Valley. The Meunier adds roundness to the blend, producing supple, fruity wines.
Chardonnay accounts for 30% of plantings. The Chardonnay is king on the Côte des Blancs, yielding delicately fragrant wines with characteristic notes of flowers, citrus and sometimes minerals.
