Champagne Piollot

Champs Rayés 2017

The Champagne Champ Rayés by Domaine Piollot is composed of 100% Chardonnay from a single vineyard plot facing west about 20 years old on clay-calcareous terroir located in the village of Polisot, in the Côtes des Bar. Fermentation occurs in oak vats and barrels, ageing for at least 4 years on its own yeasts and no dosage – making it a Brut Nature – before disgorging.

Blanc de Blancs Champ Rayés is a fresh and light Champagne, an excellent interpretation of the grape variety in the Côtes des Bar: a delicate nose of fresh white fruit, rose, grapefruit with stronger notes of cream and hazelnuts, and a delicate, yet, expressive taste with excellent freshness and minerality. A Champagne certainly to try in combination with raw white fish, carpaccio or steamed crustaceans.
