Cuvée des Rois de France 1er Cru Brut Champagne

Merry Christmas from our family to yours! 🎄🥂

With brunch, we’re sipping a special bottle of bubbly from Champagne Hervieux-Dumez, a grower-producer located in Sacy, a Premier Cru Village in the Montagne de Reims region of Champagne.

We were fortunate to visit Hervieux-Dumez in the fall of 2021. We received a warm, welcoming tour of the property from Clément, who represents the fourth generation of this family business. We had the pleasure of tasting some incredible wines, including this one, which we brought home with us.

It's the ‘Cuvée des Rois de France’ – the ‘Cuvée of the Kings of France’ – named in recognition of Champagne’s history as the traditional site for the coronation of kings at the Basilica Notre-Dame in Reims. 👑 The village of Sacy played a special role in these events as a popular source of water.

This wine is a blend of Pinot Noir, Meunier, and Chardonnay, 50% of which came from reserve wines that aged a minimum of 60 months in the Hervieux-Dumez cellar. It is a medium lemon hue with a fine mousse and offers delicious notes of yellow apple, pear, white raspberry, lemon, blossom, wet stones, brioche, almond paste, and pie crust, with a lingering, elegant finish.

We are grateful for this beautiful experience that remains a beautiful memory.

Brochet Hervieux

Brut Premier Cru Champagne Blend 2002

From Écueil (Montaigne de Reims). Pinotant, fine and pleasing, v. attractive for who loves Pinot Noir. Noble golden colour with tiny bubbles. On the nose starts with yeast, bread, then it gets typical P. Noir with earthy and even animal notes. Mature, powerful, w. good complexity; as the wine changes in the glass a clear, well focussed note of green apple takes center stage. Equally good mouth with fine minerality along with fruits and some anise. V. good finish, fresh, good length. — 11 years ago

Special Club Brut Champagne 2016

We’re pairing our Christmas brunch with a very special wine that we brought home from our recent trip to Champagne. 🍾🥂 🇫🇷

As we open this wine, we recall our visit to Hervieux-Dumez; a family-owned and -operated Champagne Grower/Producer, and member of the Club Trésors, located in the bucolic Premier Cru Village of Sacy. 💕 @champagne_hervieuxdumez

This particular wine is a ‘Special Club’, an indication of its quality and the purity of its terroir-expression. To receive this designation, the wine must come from an exceptional vintage and satisfy two blind tastings at different stages of the winemaking process: the first occurs when the wine is still, just prior to the second fermentation in bottle, and the second takes place after 3 years aging in bottle. 👏👏👏👏

This wine is a beautiful pale, gold hue. The mousse is fine and delicate. ✨ On the nose and palate, this wine offers primary notes of yellow apple, pear, lemon curd, and dried white blossom; also secondary notes of bread dough, yeast, brioche, and cream. 👍👍This wine is wonderfully balanced and refreshing; it presents dimension and complexity. It’s delicious.

Joyeux Noël to those celebrating today 🎄❄️ May your holiday be filled with warmth, peace, and many blessings. 🙏
