Godart et Fils Les Cossiers Champagne Brut AOC 0,75 ℓ

The Champagne Brut Les Cossiers from the Godart et Fils winery is a Blanc de Noir 100% Pinot Meunier. The winery was founded in 1948 by the three brothers Paul, André and Jean. Paul, the elder brother, worked for Moët et Chandon for 23 years before founding his company, now run by his son François in collaboration with the oenologist Laurie Marteau. The company is RM (Récoltant manipulant) and Vigneron Indépendant, acronyms that we also find on the label, that is, the winemaker who produces and markets Champagne with his own label, starting from grapes coming exclusively from his vineyards and processed in his cellars. The wine is dedicated to the Cossiers , that is to say the champagne producers who rebelled during the 1911 crisis so that the law was respected which established that champagne could be produced exclusively from grapes coming from the Champagne region Pinot Meunier ages on the lees for 36 months. In the glass, the Champagne is deep yellow in color with golden reflections, with a fine and persistent perlage. The nose is characterized by hints of white and yellow flowers, yellow pulp fruit with light citrus notes. The sip is fresh and silky, with a persistent finish. Perfect as an aperitif for connoisseurs, it goes classically with fish dishes, including raw fish.
