Damien Hugot Hommage Champagne AOC Extra Brut 0,75 ℓ

The Champagne Extra Brut Hommage 1921 is produced by Damien Hugot, a maison based in Epernay. Most of the vineyards are located in Côte des Blancs, the home of Chardonnay. Champagne is a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes, coming from Monthelon and Chavot. The sparkling process takes place in the bottle according to the champenoise method and the wine ages on its yeasts for at least 15 months. Straw yellow in color and with a fine and persistent perlage, it opens on the nose with aromas of flowers, apple, small red fruits and bread crust. The sip is fresh and quite savory, with good persistence. Excellent both as an aperitif and with fish crudités and sushi.
