Information about "Graham Beck Méthode Cap Classique Brut Magnum"
The Graham Beck Méthode Cap Classique Brut Magnum is a quintessential blend of Chardonnay (55%) and Pinot Noir (45%), embodying the essence of Graham Beck. This extraordinary sparkling wine offers an aromatic bouquet of freshly baked brioche and baked apple, enticing the palate from the first sip. Its elegant effervescence delivers a creamy fruitiness balanced by a zesty lime freshness, while the fine mousse adds remarkable finesse and vibrancy.
Presented in a Magnum format, this wine captures the spirit of celebration, instantly transforming any occasion into a generous, convivial gathering. The 1.5-liter bottles are ideally suited for aging and maturation, with the larger glass surface enhancing contact with the yeast cells. This results in better integration of carbon dioxide, yielding a refined character and exquisite bubbles.
Produced using the traditional Méthode Cap Classique, similar to the Méthode Champenoise, this wine undergoes bottle fermentation. Whole grapes are pressed and fermented separately. The wine rests on the lees for 15-18 months before disgorgement.
