Champagne AOC Brut Royal Pommery

What type of wine it is

Champagne Brut Royal from Pommery is a white made from a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier grapes. The style is known for its freshness, elegance, and structure. Aging on the lees for at least 36 months gives it a harmonious profile, with a clean and persistent texture that combines drinkability and technical precision.

Where it comes from

Brut Royal comes from vineyards between the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims, in the heart of Champagne. The vineyards in these areas contribute to the wine’s freshness and balance.

How it is produced

The blending of the three grape varieties precedes the second fermentation in the bottle. Aging on the lees for at least 36 months enhances structure and complexity.

Tasting notes

On appearance, Brut Royal is straw yellow with greenish highlights. The nose reveals notes of fresh fruit and citrus, with hints of honey and light toasted nuances. The palate is full and crisp, with fine bubbles and a creaminess stemming from the long aging on the lees. Softness is balanced by a vibrant acidity and a finish supported by a subtle mineral note.

Food pairings

Champagne pairs well with smoked fish such as salmon and trout, steamed shellfish, braised white meats, and international dishes like tuna sushi and sashimi. An outstanding pairing is with a seafood risotto.

When to serve it

It is recommended to serve Brut Royal chilled in tulip glasses to enhance its aromatic bouquet. Ideal as an aperitif or throughout the meal, it maintains a fresh and creamy profile in the first years after bottling.
