Champagne Brut "Dans un Premier Temps" Dhondt-Grellet
The Champagne Brut "Dans Un Premier Temps" from the Maison Dhondt-Grellet is a very pleasant French bubbly made for summer aperitifs, thanks to its elegance and freshness. Deliciously fresh and fragrant, Brut 'Dans Un Premier Temps' is produced from only the best grapes from a portfolio of renowned Champagne vineyards. This champagne is ideal for an aperitif or to accompany fish hors d'oeuvres during your next festive evening.
It is made from a blend of Chardonnay grapes with smaller percentages of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier from the Maison's best plots that are at least 40 years old: from the Côte de Sezanne comes the Chardonnay, from the Vallée de la Marne and from Cuis come the Pinot Noir and the Meunier respectively.
Pale straw in colour with a fine, persistent perlage, it expresses delicate notes of white-fleshed fruit on the nose with hints of herbs and yeasts. In the mouth, it is straight and fresh, with a fine minerality and a nice savoury finish.
