Producer Information

Champagne brand Besserat de Bellefon first launched in 1843. Since then it has earned a prestige title in the champagne industry, with customers spanning the globe. Besserat de Bellefon is full of French Heritage - from partnering with the iconic Brigitte Bardot to being served on the first French Concord and house pour in the Moulin Rouge.
There are 9 varieties of champagne within their portfolio, including their Triple B, a bio-dynamic and organic champagne which has sustainability at the forefront. Within the champagne region there are only 60 hectres of vineyards which can classify as bio-dynamic, and Besserat de Bellefon are lucky enough to own 13 of them. It's subtle and simplistic bottle design is typically French and elegant enough for any occasion.

Grapes

Pinot Meunier, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir

Production

Cellarmaster, Cédric Thiébault, historically sources the grapes for our Besserat de Bellefon Bleu Brut in the best villages of Champagne.

This cuvee is the fruit of a unique and very specific method of champagne making that has been perpetuated by Besserat de Bellefon since 1930. This consists of adding less “liqueur de tirage” (a mix of sugar, yeast and must) at the moment of bottling which creates a lighter, more diaphanous formation of effervescence. The mousse is smooth, creamy and persistent. A distinctive feature of our Bleu Brut is the absence of malolactic fermentation.

45% Pinot Meunier - 30% Chardonnay - 25% Pinot Noir

Tasting Notes

On the nose the champagne is open and indulgent with honeysuckle, hazelnuts and Mirabelle plum. On the palate the Bleu Brut is harmonious, balanced and has an assemblage of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
