GUIDE VERON DES CHAMPAGNES 2018

Notre champagne Blanc de blancs a été sélectionné par le Guide Veron des champagnes, à paraitre en 2018.

Voici les commentaires de dégustation:

ASPECT
Golden, with reserved emerald glints. Refined bubbles. Fine bead of foam.

NOSE
Elegant and sensual, source of intense pleasure. The Chardonnay, exclusive varietal of the cuvée, takes us with delicate touches of candied citrus fruits, apple and white flowers, barely mentholated.
Later, the fullness of the Champagne is revealed with its generous aromas of pastries, delicately toasted, result of the long ageing on laths of the bottles (4 years) before disgorgement.

PALATE
Lively opening, characteristic sign of the selection of the first juices (cuvée) during the pressing of the grapes, driven by the tasty mineral tension of the five plots rigorously selected (Le Four à Chaux, Le Petit Val, Macheret, Tout y Brûle and Les Clos Prieur).
The mouth becomes caressing creamy thanks to the judicious fulfillment of the malolactic fermentation of the base wines and to the generous dosage at disgorgement.
Deliciously acidulous finish. Great length on the palate. For this touching Brut Blanc de Blancs, Simon Nominé, passionate wine grower and cellar master, was able to compose the inspired blending of years (65% of base wines from 2011 and 35% of reserve wines from
the five previous years) and terroirs (Etoges, Villevenard and Allemant), with tasting, to establish the Nominé-Renard style, between delicacy and elegance.
To taste from aperitif to meal, with a blue lobtser, raspberries and green asparagus, for example.
