The length on the palate of the clear wines tasted before bottling for bubbling fully justified the vintage of the first harvest of the 21st century. In contrast to previous harvests, the three grape varieties showed a certain homogeneity: chardonnays with a floral rather than mineral profile, pinots meuniers, round, supple and fruity, and pinots noirs, full-bodied and fleshy, with aromas of small red fruits.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt;font-family: Georgia\">Ageing on laths in the intimacy of chalk-cut cellars lasts 7 years.

Powerful on the palate, with good acidity providing the freshness needed for balance. It confirms the tertiary aromas detected on the nose, with a delicate woody note. Serve with mushrooms, shellfish and grilled fish, accompanied by a citrus juice with a few bursts of dried fruit.   <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt;font-family: Georgia\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt;font-family: Georgia\">Price ex-cellar: 56 euros  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt;font-family: Georgia\">Where to buy <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt;font-family: Georgia\">Lafayette Gourmet Paris 9e,<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt;font-family: Georgia\">INNO Paris 15th, independent wine merchants<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 11.0pt;font-family: Georgia\">and Champagne Alfred Gratien.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 11pt;font-family: Georgia\">Champagne Alfred Gratien<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> <span style=\"font-size: 11pt;font-family: Georgia\">30 rue Maurice Cervaux, BP 3<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> <span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 11pt;font-family: Georgia\">51201 Epernay Cedex<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> <span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 11pt;font-family: Georgia\">Tel. : 03 26 54 38 20  <\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> <span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 11pt;font-family: Georgia\">contact@alfredgratien.com<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfredgratien.com\"><strong> <span style=\"font-size: 11pt;font-family: Georgia\">www.alfredgratien.com<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ah 2000!
