About Product
EXPERIENCE
NAME: The Prestige wines were started by the late, Philippe Gonet, crafted specifically for a friend and restaurateur back in the 70s. Named after his first-born son, Pierre, and his wife’s maiden name, Cellier.
Character: Very fresh with fine effervescence, a delicate color, and aromas expressing red floral spice and raspberry fruits. The chalky
minerality shines through the Chardonnay, creating complex bread notes and crushed-rock sensations.
ENJOY WITH: A versatile wine handling tender red meat options, lobster and other shellfish, goat cheese, and fried chicken.
BEST RESULTS: Serve at 45-48° F. We recommend not using flutes to maximize the aromatics, use a white wine or tulip glass.
EXPRESSION
FERMENTATION & EXTRACTION: Vertical press with fermentation of parcels separately in small tanks. The red is blended in after seperate fermentations are complete.
ELEVAGE: 6 months in steel tank followed by 24 months on the lees in bottle kept at exactly 53° F below ground at the Philippe Gonet estate cellar.
FINING & FILTERING: A delicate filtering and fining. Not vegan.
SULFUR: Sulfur is not added at bottling, only small amounts at the beginning stages of the fermentation process, less than 60 ppm.
SOURCE
FARMING: Certified HVE Sustainable, (Haute Valeur Environnementale) pest management and fertilizers utilize organic materials and pheromone trapping. Renewable energy, sustainable working conditions, promotion of green space, and dry farming.
LAND: The Chardonnay comes from the chalky limestone vineyards throughout the Côte des Blancs and the Pinot Noir comes from a 1er Cru village, “Vertus” also in the Côte des Blancs.
