Gaston Burtin, Brut Hommage à Gaston Burtin

This Épernay champagne is made from grapes sourced from 50 villages, with 2019 as the base year. Almost half (49%) consists of reserve wines from a solera, ensuring consistent style year after year. A minimum of three years of lees aging provides depth without sacrificing freshness.

What you smell
Ripe stone fruit like peach and apricot, with a bready hint of brioche.

What you taste
Stone fruit and a touch of honey, with a round, generous mouthfeel. The fine, persistent bubbles and fresh acidity keep everything in balance, making the wine smooth to drink and not heavy.

How it's made
A blend of 53% Meunier, 26% Chardonnay, and 21% Pinot Noir, supplemented with 49% solera-aged reserve wines. A minimum of three years of cellar aging and a dosage of 8 g/l, just enough to round off the freshness.

Serving
Serve chilled at 8 to 10 degrees in a tulip-shaped glass. Decanting is not necessary.

Pairs well with

  • Toast with smoked salmon: the fresh acidity cuts through the fat of the fish and keeps your palate fresh.
  • Fried shrimp or tempura: the bubbles and freshness break through the fat of the fried food, making each bite light.
  • Young cheese or mild poultry: the honey and brioche notes complement the soft, creamy flavors.

Maison Burtin is een Champagnehuis in Epernay, opgericht in 1933 door Gaston Burtin in het historische Château des Archers. Zijn beste cuvées hield hij decennialang binnen een select, privé kringetje; pas sinds 2022 zijn ze publiekelijk te krijgen, onder de naam Hommage à Gaston Burtin.

Champagne is een methode voordat het een smaak is: een tweede gisting in de fles die het koolzuur vastlegt. Wat de fles daarna karakteriseert, is de assemblage van druiven, dorpen en oogstjaren die de chef de cave maakt.
