Description
Maison Burtin’s 2018 Blanc de Blancs ‘Hommage à Gaston Burtin’ is a refined Champagne made entirely from Chardonnay, sourced from 20 carefully selected villages across the region, including Sézanne and several Premier Cru sites. Crafted as a tribute to the house’s founder, it combines finesse, minerality and elegance in a classic Brut style with impressive depth and balance.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright, luminous yellow with a fine, persistent mousse. The nose is delicate yet expressive, offering citrus, white flowers and fresh almond.
On the palate, it is layered and elegant, with notes of vineyard peach, grapefruit and a subtle saline edge. A discreet umami nuance adds extra complexity, while the finish is long, precise and refined. Thanks to its structure and concentration, it has excellent aging potential and will continue to develop beautifully over time.
Production
This Blanc de Blancs is made exclusively from Chardonnay, using only the first press juice for the purest expression of the grape and terroir. The fruit comes from a wide selection of Champagne villages, with a strong emphasis on quality sites such as Sézanne and Premier Cru vineyards, bringing both freshness and complexity to the blend. After traditional bottle fermentation, the wine spends over four years aging on the lees, which contributes texture, aromatic depth and its poised, balanced profile. A dosage of 8 g/l places it firmly in a classic Brut style.
Food & Serving
A versatile and elegant Champagne, it pairs beautifully with sashimi, scallops and Vitello Tonnato, and also works wonderfully as a sophisticated aperitif. Serve well chilled, ideally at 8–10°C, and there is no need for decanting.
