Champagne Matthieu Godmé-Guillaume, V.V.V, 1er Cru, Extra Brut

This is Matthieu’s calling card, made from a selection of his vineyards across Verzenay, Verzy and Villers-Marmery. A complex wine, this was based on the vibrant 2021 harvest, with 45% reserve wine added to bring depth and spice. This cuvée is a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and was vinified in oak before spending a short 15 months on lees, retaining fruit and vineyard character. Its nose is expansive, with earthy layers and citrus lift, while the palate is fine: compact, with notes of red apple, stone fruit and a firm mineral grip.
