Who produces Cuvée Première Brut Chassenay D'Arce Champagne AOP?

On what terroir is Cuvée Première Brut Chassenay D'Arce Champagne AOP produced?

The Champagne AOP designation extends across five departments in northeastern France, but the Côte des Bar stands out for its clay-limestone soils of Kimmeridgian origin, similar to those of Chablis. The cool continental climate, tempered by the oceanic influence, promotes a slow ripening of the grapes and a natural acidity suitable for making sparkling wines. The appellation's specifications mainly allow three grape varieties: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Meunier.

At what temperature should Cuvée Première Brut Chassenay D'Arce Champagne AOP be served?

It is generally served between 8 and 10°C, in a flute or tulip glass that allows the effervescence to express itself. Non-vintage Brut champagnes are preferably consumed within a few years of purchase, without requiring prolonged aging.
