Le Brut

The epitome of the Castelnau style.

The House’s flagship champagne, the Brut showcases the prolonged ageing that defines the signature Castelnau style.

Aged for a minimum of 5 years in our cellars, this champagne is the legacy of decades of skill and passion. It celebrates the rich diversity of terroirs, from which Chardonnay, the majority grape in the blend, is sourced, to impart its full freshness, depth of flavour and length.

To taste this Brut champagne is to appreciate refined bright Chardonnay character, around a core of ripe yellow-stone fruits, and the fleshy full-flavour of Pinot Noir.

A blend of wines from the current harvest and 30% reserve wines, with its notes of brioche, the champagne plays on depth and generosity.

Lengthy lees-ageing

Virtually languishing in obscurity for at least five years, the bottles will protect a precious secret. During this time, while resting on the lees, the wines will experience the alliance of chemistry and magic that enthralls palates the world over.

The wines will take in decades of history written on the chalk walls; to assimilate the very spirit and soul of all the ‘shapers’ behind Champagne Castelnau.

Lengthy lees-ageing provides a cocoon of sernity and plenitude to Castelnau champagnes. For those who taste their splendour, their patience is rewarded as the champagne’s full personality is released.
