Le Mont Benoit 1er Cru Extra-Brut Vieille Vigne Savart 2014

The wine

Le Mont Benoît is an extra-brut cuvée from the Villers aux Nœuds terroir produced in limestone-clay soil. A blend of Pinot Noir (95%) and Chardonnay (5%), it develops a sappy, highly vinous texture in the mouth. On the nose, a wide range of pâtisserie and grilled notes signal a well-made wine.

About the Producer Savart

Maison Savart describes itself as a producer of "auteur" wines. Lying 10 km west of Reims, the domain is in the village of Ecueil which has specialised in growing Pinot Noir for many years. Frédéric Savart has made the 4 hectare property his own, continuing his father's work on this "laboratory of terroirs". He produces exciting, fresh and quite varietal champagnes always with a predominance of Pinot Noir. Its limited production (40,000 bottles approximately) make it well worth the detour!
