Champagne Demi-sec to Doux
Sweetness
Champagnes for pure gourmet pleasure
Presentation
Smooth, delicate Champagne wines
The great majority of Champagne wines are produced with a dosage that brings their sugar level to less than 12 grams per litre, placing them in the "Brut" category. However, there are wines in which the sugar content is higher, between 17 and 32 grams of sugar per litre for a dry Champagne, between 32 and 50 grams for a demi-sec, and over 50 grams for a sweet wine.
Such wines may not be the most common but they’re still well worth discovering.
They’re rounder, more indulgent, providing fruity notes that are very sweet on the palate. They can bring rather interesting associations with certain dishes, including sweet and sour recipes.
