About the wine
Treat your guests at Christmas dinner with this powerful sparkling wine — Le Montgruguet Extra Brut AC. The wine-growing regions of the French winery R. Pouillon extend across the Champagne countryside, where the experienced winemaker produces this sparkling wine. Flaschenpöstler culinary tip: This sparkling wine is very good to serve with fish dishes or appetizers.
Tasting note
The hill, with the eponymous place of worship “Notre Dame du Gruguet”, not only offers a wonderful view of the Valée de la Marne, it is also something of a chalk island on the banks of the Marne and offers a special terroir. The grapes come from four plots: “Les Varilles”, “Les Marolles”, “Les Croix Blanches” and “Sente de Demoiselles”. The base wine is aged completely in used oak barrels. The nose features aromas of fresh raspberries, sour cherries and juicy red apples, plus some licorice, with notes of toasted brioche and roasted nuts. Fine and elegant on the palate, yet complex, with good pressure and nice, crisp freshness.
Culinary recommendation
An elegant aperitif champagne with high standards, but also a versatile accompaniment, such as beetroot carpaccio with fresh goat cheese and roasted pine nuts, game terrine with Cumberland sauce, but of course also with various fish dishes and seafood, as well as poultry.
