Charles Collin Brut Champagne

Description

Champagne Charles Collin was founded in 1952. Their Brut is mostly Pinot Noir, with some Chardonnay. Its impressive citrus notes will be supported by apple, pear and fresh bread tones, with a saline minerality emerging on the finish. A great food wine, this will be a good option for seafood or, if you can wait, its versatility will make it a great match for your Thanksgiving dinner, whether you're serving turkey, ham or salmon.

Tasting Notes

Pale yellow straw colour, with a good mousse when poured in a flute. Explosive citrus aromas and flavours, specifically lemon, along with some sweet notes of apple and a hint of shortbread. A bit of minerality coming through as a briny seashell taste. Brilliant acidity and a fairly long finish. Perfect with oysters, pork tenderloin or turkey breast, or simply a snack of assorted roasted nuts. (VINTAGES panel, July 2015)
