And this is what Natalie Lumpp, TOP Sommelière, writes about the Prestige Champagne Corbon:

"You get truly characterful, independent Champagne from the confident winemaker Agnès Corbon. Try the Prestige brut Champagne Corbon – and you'll understand what I mean. Even in its color, it presents itself in a rich golden yellow, and while its scent initially reminds one of Boskoop apples and lovage, it becomes increasingly clear and fruity – just think of a basket full of ripe mirabelle plums. On the palate, it shows a wonderful balance: dry, it appears very lean and with moderate acidity. It retains its yellow-fleshed juicy character, but also has a lot of spice and a nutty touch. I am impressed by its pleasant maturity, simply perfect for winter.

Winemaker Agnès and her father Claude place great importance on allowing the Champagnes to mature in their cellar for at least five years. They are advocates that their Champagnes undergo as few treatments as possible, i.e., no filtration or enrichment.

If you are looking for a characterful Champagne for the holidays, you will be delighted with the Prestige brut from Corbon. All that's missing are the canapés – with salmon and a little foie gras…
