Vilmart & Cie | Grand Cellier d'Or Premier Cru Brut - NV

A real pleasure for the holidays: Finely interwoven with dark, floral notes on the nose, some allspice, cloves, very light cinnamon bark. Mouth-filling on the palate, again notes of spices, fresh citrus fruit, also green olives, some oxidative notes, some candied orange peel. Full body, complex, elegant and stately.

Producer Information

Champagne Vilmart is a Champagne house situated in the small village of Rilly la Montagne in the heart of the Montagne de Reims. It was founded in 1890 by Desiré Vilmart and has passed down the family since. Vilmart produces wines from 11 hectares (27 acres) of vineyards in and around the village, with about 60-percent planted to Chardonnay and 40-percent to Pinot Noir. It is a so-called "grower" Champagne house, which means it only makes wines from vineyard plots that it owns, rather than buying in grapes, which is common for the larger houses. Vilmart's standard cuvée is Chardonnay-dominant, with Pinot Noir contributing around 30-percent. On top of this, the house produces a range of other wines, including the flagship Grand Cellier d'Or vintage wine, also Chardonnay-dominant, made from the oldest plots of vines. The base wine is aged for 10 months in 228-liter oak barrels before the secondary fermentation. There are numerous other wines including the Rubis rosé.
