Since its creation in 1951, Champagne Pertois-Moriset has been an independent, family-run producer. Harvesting-Handling, they vinify, champagnize and market only their own grapes.
Located in Mesnil-sur-Oger, a prestigious classified village Grand Cru of the Côte des blancs, this family-run Domaine seeks to exalt without make-up the minerality and typicity of their terroirs.
Their 20.70-hectare vineyard is divided as follows:
- 13.40 hectares in Côte des blancs, where the Chardonnay grape reigns supreme.
- 7.30 hectares in the Coteaux Sézannais, where the grape variety is 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay.
This family-run house is a member of the prestigious Club Trésors de Champagne, a club founded in 1971 and made up of just 24 members, whose aim is to bring together artisan Champenois winemakers sensitive to the preservation of their terroir and know-how. This membership contributes to embellishing the flawless reputation of Pertois-Moriset and enhances their quest for excellence and respect for winegrowing tradition and terroir.
From the prestigious terroir of Cramant, classified as a Grand Cru in the Côte des Blancs, Pertois-Moriset Cramant 2018 is an exceptional 100% Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs, the result of a unique harvest and artisanal expertise. This vintage embodies all the minerality and aromatic finesse characteristic of this iconic village, renowned for its chalky soils and elegant expression.
This single-village cuvée, made from vines with an average age of 50 years, is the result of respectful viticulture and balanced vinification: 78% in stainless steel vats to preserve the freshness and purity of the fruit, and 22% in barrels to add a touch of complexity and roundness. After 48 months of aging on lees, this Extra-Brut champagne (dosage 1.5 g/L) reveals rare tension and elegance, with an alcohol content of 12.5% vol.
Production is limited to 3,360 bottles and 149 magnums, underscoring the exclusive nature of this cuvée, where every detail is carefully considered: from natural winter grass cover to manual harvesting, to disgorging in April 2023.
Appearance: A golden, crystalline color with bright, brilliant highlights. The fine, persistent bubbles form an elegant cordon, a sign of great mastery of effervescence.
On the nose: The bouquet is very pure, marked by aromas of white flowers (hawthorn, acacia), white fruits (Golden apple, Williams pear), and a touch of citrus zest (lemon, grapefruit). A subtle minerality, evoking chalk and flint, recalls the unique identity of the Cramant terroir.
Palate: The attack is fresh and lively, carried by a racy acidity that gives the wine a beautiful tension. The texture is both creamy and precise, with a beautiful length on the palate. Aromas of white fruit and citrus mingle with brioche and slightly toasted notes, leading to a mineral and salty finish typical of the great wines of Cramant. The balance between power and finesse is remarkable, with an aromatic persistence that invites further tasting.
Food and champagne pairings: This champagne pairs perfectly with oysters, shellfish, noble fish (sea bass, John Dory), or fresh goat's cheese. It can also enhance more elaborate dishes, such as mushroom risotto or poultry in a creamy sauce.
