Germar Breton’s 2015 Millésime is a distilled essence of an exceptional vintage, inviting collectors and celebrants to buy affordably luxurious vintage Champagne, for a moment of pure discovery.

What makes this truly special is its extra-brut dosage (3 g/L), which lets the wine’s citrus and brioche aromas speak unfiltered, while its extended lees ageing adds a spicy depth. A Champagne to buy for its rarity and its promise of ageing potential.

Winemaking: Each bottle comes from a single harvest of 100% Chardonnay, hand-picked from clay-limestone parcels. The juice is drawn only from the first press - the “cœur de cuvée” - then crafted using méthode traditionnelle of gentle pressing, wild-yeast fermentation in stainless steel, eight years on lees, then a final élevage in bottle before release.

Pairing Suggestions: Shellfish starters or supreme of poultry with mushroom sauce

Tasting Note: Bright gold with intense bubbles, it opens with lemon zest and clementine, evolving to brioche, pineapple and mango, finishing with a whisper of spice.

Origin: Côte des Bar, Champagne, France

Alcohol: 12.5%

Blend: Chardonnay

Champagne Germar Breton

The Breton family are from the very south of Champagne in the Aube, where the landscape is more Burgundian than classic Champenois.

A little more clay in the chalky soil and a few more sunshine hours give wines that are generous and approachable and, most importantly, affordable.

Modest growers who have produced grapes for centuries but have only made the Champagne wines themselves for roughly forty years. They are finding their feet, and producing wines that cause irritation to the grander names further north.
