A blend of 75% Chardonnay and 25% Pinot Meunier from 60-70 year old vines grown on chalk and limestone soils. Made from mainly 2018 vintage fruit, this spent a total of 4.5 years on its lees during first and second fermentations. Bottled “extra-brut” with 3g/l of residual sugar.
Wow! The old vines give great concentration of flavour, impressive structure and long length! This Champagne tastes somehow more vinous than most, with nice weight and fruit density and a silky smooth mouthfeel. A long, rounded, “gastronomique” Champagne which would be great served with poultry in a rich sauce. Approximately 5,000bts were produced.
About Emeline De Sloovère
The De Sloovère family have been making Champagnes in their 11th century farmhouse for five generations, but Emeline is one of the new generation of young, motivated grower/producers in the region who is taking her family’s Champagnes in a new and very positive direction. Emeline is one of the leading lights in the drive towards sustainable Champagne production. Her vines are grown biodynamically, using only natural composts and sprays; the wines are fermented using wild yeasts and bottled with minimal or zero sulphites; and she is the first producer in the region to ditch the metal neck sleeve which traditionally covers all Champagne bottle corks. Instead her “Emeline de Sloovère” range of wines have a simple strip of paper sealing the cork, which substantially reduces her Carbon footprint and has no effect on the quality of the champagne.
