NV Champagne Jean Vesselle "Oeil de Perdrix" Brut

The English translation is 'eye of the partridge' and it's produced from grapes with fantastic phenolic maturity and richness. The grapes spend a few hours on skins which results in a must that has a touch of pink. The pink turns to amber colouring with age. The amber colour is maintained throughout the vinification process as it is a sign of an unfiltered wine with a little more fruit and structure. The concept is to honour the Pinot Noir based Champagnes of the 19th century which naturally had a blush to them. 6g p/l
