If the Montagne de Reims is recognised as being one of the best areas in Champagne for the production of Pinot Noir grapes, this label from Maison Tornay can only be a small masterpiece. 100% Pinot Noir, this Champagne bears the label Blanc de Noirs, which precisely means that it is a white sparkling wine, produced however from the vinification of only red grapes. Specifically, grapes from the village of Bouzy and classified as Grand Cru. Vinification of the base takes place in thermoregulated stainless steel vats. Then, once the cuvée has been made up, the wine is bottled to begin the classic method frothing phase. This is followed by maturation on the lees for a minimum of 6 years and, after disgorgement, a dosage of approximately 8 grams of sugar per litre. In the glass, this Champagne reveals a beautiful effervescence, with bubbles of great finesse. The colour is pale gold, clear and brilliant. The nose reveals a mature wine, with aromas of white-fleshed fruit, notes of honey and gingerbread. In the finish, a touch of quince. In the mouth, a round wine is revealed, with a pleasant freshness in the background. Notes of candied fruit and a slight bitter note on the finish. To accompany it worthily, this Champagne requires dishes with a strong flavour, such as foie gras or savoury pastries. It is also perfect with a good roast veal with mushrooms.

Bouzy is a picturesque village located in the southern part of the Montagne de Reims, in the heart of the Champagne region. There is a very special atmosphere here, thanks to its stone houses, beautiful vineyards and many wine cellars that attract visitors and wine lovers from all over the world. Bouzy is known for its chalky soils, perfect for growing Pinot Noir, which not surprisingly is the main variety cultivated. The village of Bouzy, classified as a Grand Cru, produces structured and complex Champagnes, rich in unique aromas and nuances. A fine example is this Champagne Tornay, Grand Cru Brut, 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Vinified in thermoregulated stainless steel vats, at the end of the mousse, the wine matures in contact with its own yeasts for at least 3 years, before disgorging and final release. On serving, the mousse is abundant and creamy. The effervescence is very active and produces an incessant perlage. The colour is luminous and reminiscent of gold. The nose initially surprises with floral aromas of white flowers, followed by notes of ripe fruit and a delicate touch of spice on the finish. In the mouth it reveals itself to be a wine with a nice freshness, but at the same time round and ripe. The finish is well balanced. A wine with remarkable gastronomic aptitude, it goes well with asparagus, braised cod or a delicate cheese soufflé.

The Montagne de Reims actually consists of a chain of hills, located in the Champagne region. This area is famous for the production of high quality wines, and the village of Bouzy in particular is one of the key places within this area. It is an amazing geological treasure trove of chalk, sand, clays and limestone. Chalk, in particular, plays a key role in the cultivation of grapes and in the village of Bouzy, it is a distinctive feature. Champagne Tornay offers this Rosé Premier Cru, 10% Pinot Noir and 90% Chardonnay. The base wines are vinified in thermoregulated stainless steel vats. Then, after the creation of the cuvée, the wine is bottled and sent to the delicate process of sparkling according to the classic method. This is followed by an ageing period of at least 3 years in contact with the yeasts, at the end of which disgorgement and dosage takes place, i.e. the addition of a small quantity of sugar. In this case, 8 grams per litre. As soon as it is poured, this Champagne rosé is a beautiful salmon colour of medium intensity. The bubbles are very fine and form thin chains that rise towards the surface of the wine. The nose reveals a wine characterised by fresh fruity notes, with hints of candied citrus fruits and bread crust. In the mouth, it is round and soft, with excellent balance. There is a perfect correspondence with what was previously perceived on the nose, in which aromas of pink grapefruit and orange peel also emerge. The finish is soft and of good length. A Champagne with a pleasantly gastronomic character, it goes well with first and second courses based on fish, but also with white meats and fresh cheeses.
