{"product_id":"champagne-collard-picard-racines","title":"Champagne Collard-Picard Racines","description":"\u003cp\u003eChampagne Collard-Picard Racines is a distinctive Blanc de Noirs made entirely from Pinot Meunier, showcasing a more characterful and terroir-driven side of Champagne. With grapes sourced mainly from the Vallée de la Marne and crafted with a notably low dosage, it offers a precise, dry style that balances freshness, depth, and mineral drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMakuprofiili\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, Racines shows a pale golden colour with a fine, elegant mousse. The nose opens with ripe orchard and stone fruit, followed by layers of brioche, toasted nuts, and a clear mineral edge that gives the wine a focused, energetic feel.\n\nThe palate is crisp and dry, with lively acidity, subtle richness from lees ageing, and a long, saline finish that keeps the wine clean and refreshing. Thanks to its structure and low dosage, it has the concentration to age well over the next few years, gradually gaining more complexity and roundness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRacines comes primarily from vineyards in the Vallée de la Marne, where clay and limestone soils help shape the wine’s balance of fruit and minerality. The grapes are harvested with care and vinified in large oak barrels, with no malolactic fermentation, a choice that preserves freshness and tension. The wine then spends around 36 months ageing on the lees before disgorgement, with a very low dosage of around 3 g\/L to maintain its dry, precise style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuoka \u0026amp; tarjoilu\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis champagne works beautifully with oysters, shellfish, sashimi, roast chicken, or rich dishes with creamy sauces, as well as hard cheeses and salted snacks that echo its mineral finish. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C, and decanting is not recommended; instead, let it open gradually in the glass to appreciate its evolving aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuottaja\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChampagne Collard-Picard is a family-run Champagne house known for producing elegant, terroir-focused wines that highlight the character of their vineyard sites.
