Description

This vivid Champagne shows up-front and linear definition, thanks to rapierlike acidity, with finely meshed flavors of ripe black cherry and mandarin orange fruit, raw almond, anise and cardamom spice as well as a touch of honeycomb, which all unfurl and expand on the fine, creamy palate. Sleek acidity continues through to the finish, with additional racy character provided by a streak of minerally saline and chalk, which gains momentum through the midpalate and rings out on the well-cut, lasting finish. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Drink now through 2040. 9,181 cases imported. - Wine Spectator

Champagne

Champagne, located in northeastern France, is famous for its sparkling wines made primarily from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. The region’s cool climate and chalky soils contribute to the high acidity and minerality of its wines. The unique production method, known as Méthode Champenoise, involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle, creating its signature bubbles. This labor-intensive process, combined with the region’s strict regulations, leads to the quality and consistency of Champagne. The wines range from bone-dry to sweet, with flavors of green apple, citrus, and brioche. Champagne’s versatility makes it perfect for celebrations and food pairings, from oysters to fried chicken.
