-
Soil Type: The vineyards in Ecueil feature varied soils, with sandy patches, clay mid-slopes, and chalky areas, contributing to the wine's complexity. The chalkier soils of Villiers-aux-Noeuds are especially valued for their Pinot Fin d'Ecueil, enhancing the wine's mineral undertones.
-
Viticulture: Savart's commitment to quality begins in his 4 hectares of vineyards, where careful sélection massale of Pinot Noir ensures the preservation of exceptional grape qualities.
-
Winemaking: The L'Ouverture, made entirely from Pinot Noir, combines barrel-fermented and stainless steel-fermented wine, with only partial malolactic fermentation influenced by reserve wines. This method, along with aging under cork and a 7g/L dosage, contributes to the Champagne's distinctive vibrancy and flavor profile.
-
Tasting Notes: This entry-level Champagne transcends its status with a multidimensional character, balancing vibrant acidity with a compelling flavor profile marked by Pinot Noir's depth and the terroir's minerality.
-
Pairing: Its versatility makes it an excellent companion to a wide range of dishes, from delicate seafood to richer poultry and creamy sauces, elevating each meal with its nuanced complexity.
