A half bottle of Champagne is the perfect excuse to treat yourself on any given day. Based in Côtes de Bar (Aube), Bernard Dumont continues the 200-year family tradition as he grows fruit on the same soils found in Chablis, where crisp Chardonnay reigns supreme. So, imagine how that terroir affects the Pinot Noir (90%) in the Brut Tradition: the red fruit is leaner and lighter than usual, while 10% Chardonnay adds crystalline acidic notes. After three years of softening on the lees, R. Dumont creates an elegant, soft, drinkable bubbly with a classic profile of apple, toasted brioche, herbs, and white peach.
