Veuve Olivier & Fils Carte dOr Brut Champagne is a fresh and fruit-led Champagne from the Marne Valley, built primarily around Pinot Meunier with Pinot Noir. The vines around Trélou-sur-Marne give this cuvée its lively fruit character and subtle exotic nuance. The producer matures the wine for at least three years, allowing its bottle-fermented bubbles and fruit to settle into a balanced Brut style. 🥂
Veuve Olivier & Fils Carte dOr Brut Champagne shows white colour and a fine sparkling texture. Its fresh fruit and exotic fruit aroma and fresh, fruity palate make it an inviting choice for guests who appreciate grower Champagne. Enjoy it as an aperitif or pour it with seafood. Salmon rillettes on toast, grilled scallops, cod, prawns and a young Comté make particularly useful pairings. Its crispness refreshes the palate between bites. Carte d’Or is the producer's approachable expression of the Marne Valley. Pinot Meunier leads the blend and contributes open fruit; Pinot Noir supports the structure. The Brut dosage keeps the finish drier than the separate Carte d’Or Sec bottling. Serve at 8–10°C in a sparkling-wine glass for the best balance of freshness and aroma.
Veuve Olivier & Fils Carte d’Or Brut Champagne comes from Veuve Olivier & Fils, a family Champagne estate in Trélou-sur-Marne. The producer works with the traditional Champagne method, in which the second fermentation takes place in the bottle. This careful production creates the bubbles and supports a composed, food-friendly character. Chill the bottle before opening and pour gently to enjoy the rising mousse and gradually unfolding aromas. A glass on its own is a lovely start to the evening, while a suitable dish lets the wine's fruit and texture show another side. The 750ml format serves a shared table or a thoughtful gift. The wine contains sulphites. 🍾✨
