history
The Maison Doré’s history is steeped in tradition and esteem. It all began in 1928. The Maison has passed from generation to generation of winemakers in the Doré family for almost a century. In 2014, Gérard Doré called on his neighbour and friend, Jean-Guy Monmarthe, to take over the reins of the Maison Doré. A sixth-generation winemaker himself and head of the Maison Monmarthe, Jean-Guy works hard to ensure that each bottle leaving the estate retains •Doré’s true character. The Doré estate is located in the village of Ludes, a Premier Cru site in the Montagne de Reims region, and extends over 4 hectares.
Vineyard
The vineyard comprises fifteen plots, each bearing a unique and evocative name: le Gué du berger (French for ‘the shepherd’s crossing’), Aventures (‘adventures’), Garennes (‘rabbit warrens’), Haute Plante (‘tall plant’), to name just a few. With a clay-limestone soil, the vines are well established on a marly base, which lends the wine its finesse and intensity. All of our wines are produced, blended and bottled on the estate.
Winemaking
Brut non-vintage A blend of three consecutive harvests Wine uniquely from the best vineyards (têtes de cuvées). Ageing in our cellars: 4 years on lees Disgorgement after a minimum of 6 months – dosage residual sugar 8 g/l
Tasting notes
COLOR You will discover a beautiful yellow color, with citrus re!ections, and a string of "ne and persistent bubbles. NOSE Elegant, notes of peach and melon that reveal a minerality. MOUTH! You will have the pleasure of the association of these three grape varieties: a generous and mineral side. The final is under the sign of exoticism with notes of citrus and grapefruit.
Food pairing
This champagne can be enjoyed at any •Doré hour. Perfect for an apéritif, it also pairs well with grilled fish. We like to let it breathe, so that its flavours can open out.
