Produced in the Premier Cru village of Sacy, this vintage comes from a sunny year that allowed for perfect phenolic maturity. Maxime chose the \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"303\" data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eNature\u003c\/b\u003e (Pas Dosé) version precisely not to interfere with the natural richness of the fruit, offering a \"naked,\" taut, and incredibly deep Champagne. It is an uncompromising wine, dedicated to those who seek the purest and most vibrant expression of the terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eSensory Profile\u003c\/b\u003e In the glass, it reveals an intense golden color with very fine and persistent bubbles. The nose is complex and layered: initially, it releases notes of quince, ripe yellow peach, and bread crust, then evolves towards hints of toasted dried fruit and a chalky mineral trail. In the mouth, the attack is powerful and vinous, supported by a solid structure typical of Pinot Noir, but balanced by a crisp and citrusy freshness. The finish is dry, saline, and very long, leaving the palate perfectly clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003ePhilosophy and Winemaking\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"38\" data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eOrganic\u003c\/b\u003e certified, this Champagne reflects Maxime's low-intervention approach. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, and the wine ages long on its lees in the Maison's cellars to develop its complexity. The absence of sugar dosage (0 g\/l) enhances the verticality of the sip, highlighting the quality of an exceptional vintage like 2018.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eFood Pairings\u003c\/b\u003e Given its structure and complete absence of sugar, Barbaries is an ideal companion for fine dining. It excels with dishes based on noble crustaceans (lobster, crayfish), baked fish with aromatic herbs, or structured pasta dishes like porcini mushroom risotto. It is also perfect paired with elaborate white meats or aged hard cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003eTechnical and Identification Data\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Maxime Ponson\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"26\" data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eCuvée:\u003c\/b\u003e Barbaries Premier Cru\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"55\" data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eVintage:\u003c\/b\u003e 2018\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"68\" data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eGrape varieties:\u003c\/b\u003e Predominantly Pinot Noir and Meunier, with a portion of Chardonnay\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"138\" data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eCertification:\u003c\/b\u003e Organic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"164\" data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eDosage:\u003c\/b\u003e Nature \/ Pas Dosé (0 g\/l) \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VINART","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56777540338039,"sku":"C-CAV19\/18","price":231.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/0734\/7063\/files\/ChampagnePonsonpremiercru.png?v=1771664903","url":"https:\/\/vinart.it\/en\/products\/champagne-maxime-ponson-barbaries-premier-cru-nature-2018","provider":"VINART ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
