Champagne Akileire - Bravo Delta Novembre Extra Brut Magnum

The Champagne Akileire Bravo Delta November Extra Brut Magnum is a Blanc de Noirs produced in Chézy-sur-Marne, in the western part of the Vallée de la Marne, from a blend of 66% Pinot Noir and 34% Meunier. It is the first Champagne born from the Akileire project and represents an energetic and contemporary interpretation of this still little-known area of Champagne.

In the glass, it shows a bright golden color crossed by a fine and persistent perlage. The aromatic profile starts with white fruits and fresh citrus fruits to develop towards deeper notes of blackberry, blackcurrant and yellow fruit. On the opening, light nuances of brioche, dried fruit and toast emerge, also linked to the small component vinified in wood.

On the palate it is fresh, vertical and dynamic, but without giving up the typical character of Pinot Noir and Meunier. The structure is generous, accompanied by a good mineral tension and an extremely low dosage. The finish is long, savory and slightly spicy, with returns of dried fruit and a pleasant chalky sensation.

The 1.5-liter Magnum format makes this cuvée particularly interesting for the table and for convivial occasions, maintaining the gastronomic character and great drinkability that distinguish Bravo Delta November.

Wine making

Le uve vengono raccolte manualmente e vinificate prevalentemente in vasche di acciaio inox (circa l'88%) per preservare la purezza del frutto e la freschezza varietale, mentre una piccola parte della massa (circa il 12%) fermenta in legno per apportare maggiore complessità. Dopo la presa di spuma secondo il Metodo Classico, il vino viene dosato Extra Brut con appena 1 g/l, scelta che permette di valorizzare la tensione minerale, la precisione aromatica e la naturale salinità del terroir di Chézy-sur-Marne.
