Light straw yellow with golden reflections, delicate nose with aromas of yeast, citrus, white flowers and green pepper. Fresh and tense mouth-feel, medium body, freshness that constitutes the backbone of the wine and finishes with touch of bitterness.
Appelation |
Champagne AOC |
---|---|
Vineyard |
Composed of vineyards stretching over the South Slopes of Epernay and the Right Bank of ValleĢe de la Marne, spread out between its native village, Vinay, and the neighboring one: Moussy. The soils are mostly chalk, but with additional composition of clay, sand and flint. Vines are 35 years old on average. |
Vinification |
Jean-Philippe is very careful about separate vinification of each cru prior to the assemblage. The Premier Regard champagne ages in our cellar for a minimum of 30 months, which allows it to acquire greater maturity. Disgorging occurs as late as possible to keep the freshness. The liqueur d’expedition is aged in oak for 3 to 5 months. As little dosage as possible (8.5g/l) and sulfite additions far below the usual champagne standards. |
Pairing |
Elegant and versatile, it goes well with aperitifs, any celebratory occasion, as well as mushroom dishes, fried chicken and citrus based dishes and desserts. |
In the beginning of the 1960’s, Jean DIOT created the champagne who would hold his name. During the following years, he cultivated the family estate with the goal to preserve the family values and their traditions. The estate was then inherited by his children in 1998. Maison Jean Diot, based in Vinay from day one, carries on the will of its founder by producing several vins de Champagne thanks to the meticulous farming of the vineyards located on the south hills of Epernay and in the Marne’s valley.
