Located just east of Paris, Champagne sits along the Aisne, Vesle, and Marne rivers. The wine region stretches along the Marne River into Epernay. There is no other territory like it on the planet. The climate is quite rugged with sunny falls and summers and cool to cold winters.  The soil can be quite chalky with a thin layer of topsoil. This type of soil provides perfect drainage and is an excellent base for grapes. The village of Champagne is located on rolling hillsides facing the southern slopes. The region produces almost 25 million bottles every year on over 34,000 hectares of vineyards. The main grapes that are grown in the region are Pinot Noir, Pino Muenier, and of course, Chardonnay. Over 300 villages are scattered around the wine region of Champagne. Each village is rated by grape potential and quality. There are 300 villages in the region, which are scattered around the area. The top 17 are designated as, “Grand Cru,” vineyards.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"wolfberger-cremant-d-alsace-brut","title":"Wolfberger Cremant d' Alsace Brut","description":"\u003cp\u003eWolfberger Cremant d Alsace Brut NV is made with 90 % Pinot Blanc, 10% Pinot Auxerrois.

The purified musts are placed in stainless steel tanks and held at near freezing temperatures which blocks completely any fermentation. This enables the producers to draw batches of fresh must whenever they decide to bottle. The batch of must is then inoculated with special yeast and fermented in an autoclave to retain the naturally produced carbon dioxide. The fermentation is stopped by a rapid chilling when the wine reaches the desired ratio of alcohol (standardly 7%) to residual sugar ( 3-5% ).

BACKGROUNDIn 1834 the Boizel House was established in pernay, the heart of Champagne, by a family passionate about the wines of its region. Intimate knowledge of the Champagne region, passed on through the generations, and access to grapes from the finest cru sites, are the essential elements behind the Boizels' elegant portfolio. Working with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir sourced only from Champagne's most coveted Grands and Premiers Crus blended with the best crus of Pinot Meunier, Boizel's intimate knowledge of each village and hillside coupled with longstanding grower relationships allows them the ability to select the finest quality grapes for their Champagnes.TERROIR VINTAGE NOTESPinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes for the production of the Grand Vintage wines are sourced from Grands and Premiers Cru vineyards within the villages of La Montagne de Reims (Pinot Noir) and the Cte des Blancs (Chardonnay). Pinot Meunier is sourced from the best sites within the Valle de la Marne.All wines are aged sur lie in Boizel's historic chalk cellars beneath the Avenue de Champagne for a minimum of 3 years, climbing to 15 years and above for the best vintages. WINEMAKING AGEINGA unique expression of the vintage, the Grand Vintage is only produced in the best years. This cuve is a blend of 50% Chardonnay from the Cte des Blancs (Mesnil sur Oger, Oger, Avize, Vertus) and 50% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims (Mailly, Bisseuil, Chigny les Roses).The wine was aged 8 months in stainless steel vats. Post second fermentation, the wine was aged for 8 years on its lees. TASTING NOTESDue to the long lees aging, almond, frangipane, candied orange and brioche aromas are rich and balanced. The palate is complex and mature, with the silky perlage supplying acidity and lift. Elegant pastry notes rounds out the finish. Review: Disgorged in October 2014, this smooth, now mature, wine has flavors of yeasty toastiness and a tight, mineral structure. Sliced apple and lemon zest still give freshness. Behind the fruit, crisp texture and a steely edge await. It is beautifully balanced, rich while dry and ready to drink.

Held in an elegant bottle inspired by King Henri IV, it has been widely acknowledged for its consistent high quality for more than 40 years, and it is the benchmark for ros champagne around the world.

Made with 100% Pinot Noir from 10 different crus (or villages), from the North and South areas of the Montagne de Reims, as well as the famous village of Bouzy.

The finish is supple and rounded. Its aromatic depth makes it ideal for pairing with marinated raw fish, grilled prawns, exotic dishes, Parma ham and red fruit desserts.

Since 1843, the House of Krug has honoured this vision with each new dition of Krug Grande Cuve: the most generous expression of Champagne. The final composition of this bottle of Krug Grande Cuve is 45% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay and 18% Meunier. Krug Grande Cuve 171me dition is a blend of 131 wines from 12 different years, the youngest of which is from 2015, while the oldest dates back to 2000. A stay of around seven years in Krug's cellars gives this dition its remarkable expression and elegance. In all, over 20 years of careful craftsmanship were necessary to enjoy this dition of Krug Grande Cuve which represents the 171th re-creation of the most generous expression of Champagne.Krug Grande Cuve 171me dition was composed around the harvest of 2015, a year marked by unprecedented heat and drought that prevailed from the end of May to mid-August, slowing grape development. Fortunately, rains in the second half of August allowed the berries to grow and, combined with sunshine and reasonable temperatures, ensured ripening in optimal conditions. The harvest took place between August 31 and September 21, under the rain, with great heterogeneity from plot to plot. To create this dition of Krug Grande Cuve, the Cellar Master looked to accentuate the year's elegantly erse aromatic expressions with different plots' reserve wines from 11 other years. The careful attention given to the vines and Krug's unique respect for the in idual character of each plot enabled the breadth of expression of this dition of Krug Grande Cuve. In all, reserve wines from the House's extensive library made up 42% of the final blend, bringing the breadth and roundness so essential to each dition of Krug Grande Cuve. Review: The NV Grande Cuve 171me Edition is a delightful blend of 45% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay and 18% Pinot Meunier and boasts an attractive and captivating aroma of dried fruits, pastry, lemon oil, marzipan, spring flowers and ginger, with hints of almond and vanilla notes that become more pronounced over time. This medium to full-bodied wine is precise and well-structured, with a fleshy core of fruit and a sapid, incisive finish.

The name of Grand Sicle was chosen for LaurentPerrier's Prestige Cuve based on this common vision to reach a perfection that Nature, on its own, cannot provide. Review: This is really something.

It was completed with 10% traditionally macerated Pinot Noir of the year blended from plots in A and Mareuil-sur-A, to add a unique spiciness, colour and structure. Its final composition is 57% Pinot Noir, 23% Chardonnay and 20% Meunier. A stay of around seven years in Krug's cellars gives Krug Ros 27me dition its unique expression and elegance.At first sight, its subtle pale pink colour holds a promise of elegance. On the nose, aromas of rose hips, cured ham, mulberries, redcurrant, peony, pepper and pink grapefruit. On the palate, delicate flavours of honey, citrus and dried fruit with a long finish, enhanced by its fine bubbles complete the experience. Review: Thirty-eight wines from nine vintages ning 2005 to 2015 - 55% of them reserve - went into this blend of 57% Pinot Noir, 23% Chardonnay, and 20% Meunier a nonpareil of shimmering depth. On the pure, precise nose, raspberries and roses mingle with suggestions of woodsiness, honey-cured ham, and parmesan rind before vibrating with white peach and red currant, honeyed cashew, and a soupcon of tobacco leaf and cucumber on the palate - where the tension between its almost ethereal refinement, thanks not least to the unending mousse, and the luxuriance of its finish is simply (or not so simply) delicious.Tasting Panel\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Krug","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44949186838575,"sku":"450371","price":450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/krugrose_3f3d33ea-79a0-4db8-ae1d-1facf9329c0b.jpg?v=1771491009"}],"url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/collections\/champagne-sparkling.oembed?page=2","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
