Description
Characteristics and Tasting Notes for Éphémère 031 Savart x Jérôme Prévost Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Extra Brut 2016 from Champagne Savart
Tasting
Appearance
The glass reveals a luminous color, animated by a fine and persistent effervescence.
Nose
The bouquet opens with elegant notes of white fruit and citrus, underscored by a delicate chalky thread and subtle brioche touches.
Palate
Remarkably pure, the palate captivates with its tension and vibrant minerality. The very low dosage allows the identity of the terroir to express itself fully, stretching toward a persistent, saline finish.
Serving and cellaring
For optimal enjoyment, we recommend serving this champagne between 8 and 10°C.
Food and wine pairing
This Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut will pair wonderfully with oysters, scallop carpaccio or a fine white-fleshed fish.
The union of two Champagne talents for an exceptional cuvée
The estate
Founded in 1947 by René Savart, the Savart estate is located in Écueil, in the heart of the Montagne de Reims. Today, Frédéric Savart runs this estate of around 4 hectares. A passionate winemaker, he crafts cuvées with a distinct identity, using an artisanal approach and highly precise vinification. Renowned for his vibrant, low-dosage wines, Frédéric Savart joins forces here with Jérôme Prévost, another emblematic figure of the region, to create this rare micro-cuvée.
The vineyard
This champagne comes from terroirs classified as Grand Cru, the elite of the Champagne hierarchy. The vines grow on soils dominated by pure chalk, typical of the region's finest Chardonnay terroirs. This unique geology ensures excellent drainage while retaining deep water reserves, lending the grapes great freshness and an exceptional mineral signature.
The vintage
The 2016 vintage in Champagne was marked by particularly contrasting weather conditions, resulting in grapes of beautiful ripeness and remarkable balance.
Vinification and aging
The fruit of an unprecedented collaboration between two talented winemakers, this Extra Brut cuvée is crafted with great precision. True to the philosophy of its two creators, this wine has a very low dosage (Extra Brut), preserving all of its natural tension and the authentic expression of its chalky terroir.
Grape variety
This Blanc de Blancs is 100% Chardonnay.
