Now Viewing: Montaudon (champagne)
"A distinctive, memorable Cha mpagne in a mature style, this is deep gold in color, expansively doughy, flinty and nutty in aroma and flavor and has a supersmooth texture backed by firm acidity. The finish seems to last for minutes." -Wine Spectator. Montaudon is one of the rare Champagne houses still owned entirely by the founding family. It makes handcrafted methode champenoise Champagne from a small vineyard estate. Its quality rivals that of the best wines from the more famous Champagne houses at less than half the price! This brut is an assemblage of three Champagne grape varieties, 50 percent Pinot Noir, 25 percent Pinot Meunier, and 25 percet Chardonnay. Champagne is one of the most food-flexible of wines. Serving this Brut with dinner not only creates a celebratory mood, it makes good culinary sense. Experiment and try this with grilled prawns or truffle risotto.
