Champillon is home to Maison Carbon, producer of the eponymous champagne that is uncorked today on the podium of the Formula One Grand Prix, having witnessed the passing of the baton from Moët and then Mumm. A combination of expertise, knowledge, and experimentation over the years has led to the creation of a series of simply excellent sparkling wines, capable of reaching high levels of quality and satisfying even the most sophisticated palates. These bottles are also embellished with a unique and distinctive casing, consisting of a thin layer of carbon fiber, a material also found in the frames of single-seater racing cars. A champagne, in essence, simply unique! Carbon Brut is made from carefully selected grapes, harvested by hand and pressed with a traditional 4,000 kg press that allows for the selection of the highest-quality juices. It then ages for five years in oak barrels, avoiding malolactic fermentation to respect the nature of the grapes and the personality of the terroir. On the nose, it offers aromas of peach, cooked pear, and white flowers, followed by buttery notes and spicy nuances. The palate is smooth and creamy, with a finish of citrus and bread. Excellent with raw seafood or Asian cuisine, such as rice flour tagliolini with bean sprouts and red prawns.
