Champagne Comte de Monte-Carlo – Carré D’or – Gift Box – Luxury Limited Edition – 750 ml

This rare and unusual Champagne is made the way champagne used to be made. A special wine that would have been familiar to our ancestors. During the second fermentation in the bottle, the pressure is kept to no more than 3 atmospheres (about half that of a normal champagne). Thus the bubbles are more subtle and the texture is more creamy.

Carré d’or est un Champagne « Blanc de Blancs » à faible pression, 100 % Chardonnay.

Aged 3 years and dosed at 7.8 grams of liqueur. Classified premier cru on the mountain of Reims. A rare champagne with a second fermentation at below 3 bars of pressure, pale golden color and a delicate bubble with notes of fresh grapes on the palate.
Its subtle bubbles and creamy foam will appeal to all audiences. This champagne claims its originality while finesse and subtlety with charm and delicacy.
