Besserat De Bellefon
Besserat de Bellefon was founded in 1843 by Edmond Besserat in Aÿ, a prominent Champagne village. The brand became known for its exceptional quality and traditional Champagne-making methods. In 1920, Victor Besserat married Yvonne de Méric de Bellefon, joining two prominent Champagne families and adding the "de Bellefon" name to the brand. This union significantly enhanced the brand's reputation and heritage.
Description
Besserat de Bellefon Blanc de Blancs is known for its bright yellow color with a pure and gleaming appearance. On the nose, it offers intense mineral and saline aromas, intertwined with fresh citrus notes and floral hints of honeysuckle and acacia. The palate is taut, chalky, and chiselled, with vibrant and precise flavors of citrus and lemon, leading to a symphony of absolute elegance. This Champagne is fresh and crisp, with creamy brioche and red berry fruit notes, culminating in a well-rounded finish.
Food Pairing
This Blanc de Blancs pairs exceptionally well with delicate seafood dishes such as scallop carpaccio with white truffle oil and Atlantic lobster à la plancha. It also complements braised pork fillet and Tournedos Rossini with porcini mushrooms, enhancing the dining experience with its refined effervescence and crisp profile.
