Champagne Faivre — Les Confidences de l'Année 2018

Les Confidences de l'Année 2018

Champagne Faivre | Brut Nature | Vintage 2018

– a big package at my door! 5 new glasses, including the new Fatto a Mano Black Tie champagne glass, which I immediately tested with a very special champagne: – Les Confidences de l'Année 2018 The Champagne A pure vintage champagne made from 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Noir, harvested exclusively from the parcels of Belval's terroir. Fermented in enameled tanks, with complete malolactic fermentation and an extremely low dosage of only 1.6 g/l – so almost a Brut Nature. This gives it a clear, precise structure with fine salinity and minerality. The Glass I was curious to see how the champagne would develop in the new Black Tie from Riedel – and I have to say: WOW! The delicate shape with the perfect opening brings out the aromas incredibly precisely. A beautiful balance between freshness, fruit and depth. First impression? This could become my new favorite! But before I make my final decision, the other newcomers naturally need to be tested as well. Which glass do you use for champagne? Are you Team Universal Glass, classic flûte, or more of a white wine glass person? I'm curious about your opinions! glasses
