Winemaker Notes
Produced only when the harvest is exceptional, Brut Vintage is created from an exclusive selection of Pommery's seven finest crus. First, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes are blended together in equal proportions. This fine champagne is then aged for at least four years in the Pommery cellars. Finesse and elegance of the crus, with a full, rich flavour acquired through aging. Serve at mealtimes (with fish or white meats) as its complex character deserves a moment of attention, and its full beauty is revealed in the company of fine foods.
Pommery is an historic champagne house founded in 1836 by Alexandre-Louis Pommery. Madame Louise Pommery took over Champagne Pommery in 1858 and created over 11 miles of cellars. She also created the first “Brut” style champagne in 1874 – revolutionizing the style of champagne worldwide.
Pommery became an Unesco world heritage site in 2015 – Pommery receives over 180,000 visitors to the cellars per year. Clement Pierlot is only the 10th Chef des Caves since 1836 ensuring consistency of the house style. As an enologist and engineer in agriculture, Clement is devoted to organic viticulture and is leading the conversion of all Pommery owned vineyards to organic within 3 years.
