Pertois Lebrun - Le Fond du Bateau n°12 Grand Cru
66.00 €
The cuvée Pertois-Lebrun n°12 Grand Cru from the “Les Fidèles” Collection comes from Chardonnays from the plot located in the eponymous place “Le Fond du Bateau”. Planted in 1955 by Paul Pertois, the grandfather of Antoine and Clément, it is located on the terroir of Chouilly, a Grand Cru classified village of the prestigious Côte de Blancs.
Description
The Chardonnays that make up this cuvée are vinified and aged for 10 months in stainless steel vats (75%) and oak barrels (25%). The bottles then benefit from aging for a minimum of 7 years on lattes.
This Le Fond du Bateau cuvée n°12 was bottled in 2013 in just 2,500 copies, without the addition of sulfites or dosage liqueur. This champagne Blanc de Blancs Pertois-Lebrun n°12 is once again the authentic expression of the terroir, the wine and nature.
This Champagne Chouilly Grand Cru offers delicate aromas of ripe citrus fruits, exotic fruits accompanied by slightly vanilla and toasted notes as well as liquorice, typical of the chalks of this terroir. On the palate, the attack is supple and fresh opening onto a rather ample and fleshy palate, surprising by its beautiful consistency. The finish lingers on the tangy freshness and the chalky sensation remains very present.
This gastronomic cuvée Le Fond du Bateau n°12 from the Terroir de Chouilly will seduce all lovers of Grand Cru champagne in search of authenticity.
