Description
Extra Brut Cuvée Anniversaire 120 years: Gardet Champagne in limited edition
Extra Brut Cuvée Anniversaire 120 years Limited Edition is a Champagne of great personality signed by Gardet Champagne, born as a celebratory blend of the best 12 vintages of the Maison, from 1943 to 2011. A label designed for those seeking a refined, complex Champagne with an authentic character, capable of uniting freshness, depth, and finesse in a very elegant balance.
Territory and wine style
This Champagne is produced in Chigny-les-Roses, in the heart of the Champagne region, and interprets a precise style: measure, precision, and great drinkability, with an identity that enhances the long work of selection and maturation. The blend, composed of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay, combines structure, energy, and aromatic lift. The dosage of 2 g/lt confirms the Extra Brut imprint, dry and direct, ideal for those who love clear and non-redundant bubbles. Vinification in steel tanks helps preserve expressive purity and the cleanliness of the sip.
Tasting notes
In appearance, it presents a straw yellow color, bright and inviting. The aroma is intense and articulated, with hints of lime, candied fruits, and light floral nuances that accompany a very lively sensation of freshness. On the palate, the attack is energetic, progressive, and precise, with a taste structure that is tense yet harmonious. The long aging on the lees, from 84 to 108 months, enriches the cuvée with depth, continuity, and complexity, while maintaining a fresh, elegant, and vertical style. The finish is clean, persistent, and consistent with the Extra Brut profile.
Recommended pairings
Extra Brut Cuvée Anniversaire 120 years lends itself to high-level pairings with seafood crudités, scallop carpaccio, shellfish, and baked fish. Its structure and finesse also make it suitable for more refined preparations, such as game birds, especially when the dish is balanced and not overly aromatic. It is a very versatile Champagne at the table, perfect for starting an important dinner or accompanying dishes of great elegance.
Serving temperature
Serve Extra Brut Cuvée Anniversaire 120 years between 8 and 10 °C to enhance its freshness, aromatic finesse, and precision of the sip. A brief stay in an ice bucket can help maintain the glass at the ideal temperature during service, without the need for decanting.
