Champagne Mathieu - Gandon Brut MAGNUM

Mathieu - Gandon is the son of the small and traditional Champagne House from Baslieux-sous-Chatillon, in the heart of the Champagne region, at a stone's throw away from Epernay. Fabien together with his wife Séverine Gandon are greatly passionate about quality and terroir. The House works exclusively with the ' lekwijn ' (the cuvée or vin de goûte) and the ' taille' (the inferior press wine) is sold to the big houses. After bottling follows for the Esprit Brut a maturation period of at least 2 years (!) sur lattes of dégorgement. Which is to say that the wine in the bottle minimum 2 year fermented in the bottle before the yeast cells are removed. The quality is very high and because of the low production is the availability restricted. This Champagne is made with 1/3 Pinot Noir, 1/3 Chardonnay en 1/3 Pinot Meunier and has a very fine mousse with a high minerality and shows the typical tones of white bread and fresh hand fruit (Apple and pear).
