Description

Recognizable by its both pure and creamy style, Le Blanc de Blancs is a genuine ode to Chardonnay. The emblematic cuvée of the House. Brilliant and contemporary, this prestigious cuvée flourishes in a special bottle, promoting the development of the organoleptic profile during the 6 years of ageing on lees in the cellars.

Review

Delicate, fresh and romantic bouquet of lemon, jasmine, spring flowers and orchard fruits. Very sappy and round, the palate is perfectly balanced and has both a pinpoint mousse and a crystalline texture. Although quite approachable today, it will come into its own when it picks up more complexity and texture with another year or two on the cork. 100% Chardonnay. Dosage of 6 g/L.

Food Pairing

The ultimate epicurean aperitif, Le Blanc de Blancs 2015 also pairs marvellously with a lemony sea bream ceviche, a prawn risotto, or a braised veal with rosemary
