Chassenay d'Arce Brut Sélection – Champagne:

 

The Signature Brut from Côte des Bar

The CHASSENAY D’ARCE BRUT SÉLECTION CHAMPAGNE is the flagship cuvée from this prestigious cooperative house located in the southern Champagne region, the Côte des Bar. Driven by a high percentage of Pinot Noir, this blend of multiple harvests, including 36% reserve wines, delivers both structure and finesse. With an extended aging period of 4 years on the lees, this Brut Sélection achieves a remarkable complexity and a generous, fruit-forward profile that defines the Chassenay d’Arce style.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: A bright, pale gold hue with a persistent and generous stream of fine bubbles.
• Nose: Complex and expressive, it opens with enticing aromas of ripe white and yellow fruit (apple, apricot), evolving into subtle hints of sweet spice and classic Champagne aging notes like brioche and almond paste.
• Palate: Powerful and fruit-driven, the mouthfeel is generous yet delicately fluid, supported by a crisp acidity that reflects the region’s Kimmeridgian soil. It is perfectly balanced, resulting in a characterful and satisfying finish.

Pairing & Serving

This is a wonderfully versatile and food-friendly Champagne. Serve chilled at 46-50°F (8-10°C). It’s perfect for a celebratory toast or paired with substantial appetizers and fine seafood dishes.
