Millésime 2017 Blanc de Blancs
Bright and gourmet

BLEND
Millésime 2017 Blanc de Blancs, is 100% pure chardonnay, the white grape variety of the Champagne Appellation, and more than lives up to its name.
It reflects the remarkable character of the vintage, having more than proved its resistance and resilience faced with the many uncertainties experienced in the Champagne vineyards in 2017.
Chardonnay grapes are sourced from the prestigious premier and grand cru vineyards in the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims, and more generous Chardonnay from the Vallée de la Marne, not forgetting the crus from Sézannais and Vitryat. It is a fresh, exquisite wine.
Vinified in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks.
Aged at least 5 years in the cellars.
TASTING NOTE:
Appearance: attractive pale gold and extremely bright, in perfect harmony with the effervescence. A lively stream of exquisitely delicate bubbles in the glass.
Bouquet: exquisite primary pastry aromas of brioche and custard. As the wine begins to breathe, new, floral, spicy aromas come to the fore, reminiscent of magnolia and star of anise.
Palate: initially generous, fresh and thirst-quenching, underpinned by citrus notes of kumquat, accompagnied by wisps of hazelnut and even liquorice. Elegant on the finish, with stunning, delicately tangy length recalling Granny Smith apples and pink grapefruit.
PAIRINGS
Quite rightly considered an excellent choice as an aperitif, Millésime 2017 Blanc de Blancs also excels with shellfish, trout rillettes with dill, sea bream ceviche, carpaccio of veal or Mâconnais goat cheese made with raw milk.
As an aperitif : best served at 8-9°C.
With food: best served at 10-12°C.
