Description Pascal Doquet Horizon Blanc de Blancs Extra-Brut

Estate

Champagne Pascal Doquet is a renowned producer known for its prestigious wines from the Côte des Blancs region. It is distinguished by its traditional craftsmanship and environmentally friendly practices. The estate emphasizes the unique terroir of its vineyards to craft wines of exceptional finesse. Its reputation is built on consistency and quality, recognized by critics such as Robert Parker, although not specifically attributed to this cuvée.

Vineyard

Located in Côte des Blancs, the vineyard benefits from an outstanding terroir, mainly composed of chalky soils and sunny slopes. The vineyard is cultivated following biodynamic or sustainable practices, contributing to the purity of the fruit. The region is famous for its Chardonnay, which provides elegance and delicacy to its wines. The exposure and age of the vines encourage aromatic concentration. Vineyard density is high to maintain a natural balance.

Wine

This non-vintage Champagne offers an elegant and fresh expression of Chardonnay. Its color is a bright white, reflecting the purity of the grape. On the nose, it reveals floral, citrus, and flinty notes. The palate displays good vinosity with crisp acidity and well-balanced structure. Its finesse and aromatic persistence make it a high-class Champagne. It is ideal for various celebratory or gastronomic occasions.

Vintage

Non-vintage, this Champagne is assembled from multiple harvests, ensuring consistency and regularity. The non-vintage approach allows for optimal ripeness across different years, resulting in balanced complexity. The house emphasizes freshness and delicacy typical of Côte des Blancs rather than the imprint of a single vintage.

Vinification & Aging

After gentle pressing, the juice undergoes fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve fruit purity. Malolactic fermentation is generally avoided to maintain freshness. Aging typically lasts between 18 to 24 months on fine lees to develop complexity. The traditional méthode champenoise is used for aging on lees, with riddling to produce a clear and expressive wine. Dosage is discreet to highlight the purity of the Chardonnay grape.
