Champagne Montaudon – Brut Tradition N/V
Champagne AOC – Reims, France 🇫🇷

Overview
A classic, well-crafted Champagne from the historic house of Champagne Montaudon, founded in 1891. This Brut Tradition focuses on balance and immediacy, highlighting fresh fruit purity over overt autolysis. Crafted to be approachable yet authentic, it’s a reliable expression of modern, fruit-forward Champagne with restraint and finesse.

Aromas & Flavors
Clean and inviting aromatics of yellow sliced apple, pear skin, and citrus zest. Subtle notes of lemon peel and white flowers follow, with a gentle hint of brioche and pastry lingering quietly in the background rather than dominating.

Mouthfeel
Crisp and lively on entry with fine, well-integrated bubbles. Medium-bodied with refreshing acidity, offering a smooth, rounded texture that carries through to a soft, polished finish.

Food Pairings
Excellent as an aperitif. Pairs beautifully with oysters, sushi, fried calamari, gougères, soft cheeses, or simple hors d’oeuvres. Also shines alongside brunch dishes or light seafood preparations.

Verdict
A beautifully balanced Champagne that delivers freshness, elegance, and drinkability. Not flashy or overly complex, but consistently satisfying and well-executed, an easy choice for both casual celebrations and everyday Champagne moments.

Did You Know?
Champagne Montaudon is one of the oldest Champagne houses still in operation, founded in Reims in 1891, with a long-standing focus on fruit expression and balance.

🍾 Personal Pick Highlight
I love how approachable this Champagne is. Fresh, zesty, and clean, with just a whisper of brioche. A great go-to bottle when you want quality bubbles without overthinking the occasion.
