Brut Nature 2019
Forget-Brimont | Brut Nature | Vintage 2019
The Forget-Brimont Brut Nature based on 2019 is a champagne that pairs particularly well with spicy, Levantine-inspired dishes – like hummus with grilled eggplant, a red onion salad, and ras-el-hanout chicken on a tomato curry. Complex, spicy, creamy – and yet the champagne handles everything surprisingly well.
The cuvée comes from Premier and Grand Cru sites in the Montagne de Reims: Ludes, Chigny-les-Roses, Montbré – plus Mailly, Verzenay, Verzy.
The aromatic profile is accordingly taut and precise, but not harsh: yellow fruits, some citrus, a light chalky line, plus the darker spice of the two Pinots.
No sweet finish, no soft filter – just direct, straightforward expression of the Montagne de Reims.
Exactly the right balance for a meal that itself has many layers.
Tasting Notes
Taut and precise with yellow fruits, citrus and a light chalky line, plus darker spice from the two Pinots. Direct, straightforward expression of the Montagne de Reims without a sweet finish.
