Tribaut Le Millesime Vintage | Champagne, France

£46.40

A mature oak-aged Champagne from exceptional vintages.

A blend of 50% Pinot Noir & 50% Chardonnay, produced from 8 terroirs in the Marne Valley and Montagne de Reimes.

Made from a single year’s harvest, with 20% vinified in large casks (foudres), this cuvée shows good maturity with a powerful vinous backdrop.

Matured 6 years sur lie before disgorgement, the dosage is 6 grams of sugar per litre.

Since 2019 Tribaut has been one of the first Champagne houses to convert to fully organic growing – a rarity in Champagne and something that for the large Houses is almost impossible.

Tribaut-Schloesser was founded in 1929 in the heart of the champagne region in Romery, near Epernay. Four generations of the family have now built upon their passion and expertise to produce a range of impressively delicate and refined Champagnes.
