Resonance Champagne Extra Brut, Marie-Curtin, NV
Grapes: Pinot Noir.
Champagne, France.
WINERY
Champagne Marie Courtin is located in the village of Polisot in the Côte des Bars, in the southern part of the Champagne region. With its slightly warmer temperatures, this area is particularly prized for its Pinot Noir grapes. Combined with the Kimmeridgian limestone sub soils, the champagnes retain a freshness similar to Chablis, which is actually closer to Polisot than Reims! In fact, many of the Grand Marques source their Pinot Noir from the Côte des Bars because of this unique combination of texture and delineation that the sub-zone provides.
THE WINE
Fresh and nervy with a rounder character than in past years. Classic Marie Courtin cut with a bit more meat on the bone.
GOES BEST WITH
Pork, Rich fish (salmon, tuna etc), Shellfish, Mild and soft cheese.
