The estate and the wine |
|
|
Benoît Beaufort is a hidden gem in the Champagne world, with a modest 4-hectare vineyard nestled in Ambonnay. This esteemed Grand Cru area, also home to the renowned Egly-Ouriet family, provides the perfect foundation for Beaufort's tailored production, aligning with the pinnacle of champagne crafting.
The use of a substantial amount of reserve wines and extended, careful aging creates an exquisite, mostly exported collection. Finding these limited bottles in France is a rare occurrence, given their extremely limited production. |
