Description

The Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs 2012 from the A.R. Lenoble house is a cuvée of crazy complexity, highlighting beautiful citrus aromas.

This champagne is made from Chardonnays from the Grand Cru de Chouilly terroir, on the Côte des Blancs.

A small part (25%) of the wines is vinified in oak to add a touch of complexity. Its dosage is Extra Brut (2g / l), allowing the purity of the wine to be fully expressed.

This 2012 Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs cuvée by A.R. Lenoble has a straw yellow color with subtle green reflections typical of a Blanc de Blancs. Its bubbles are of great finesse, and its foam is delicate.

On the nose, this cuvée is distinguished by a dominant citrus fruit, supported by notes of very ripe fruit. We also find the signature of the 2012 vintage, focused on aromatic richness.

On the palate, this champagne opens with a lively attack, then the wine covers the entire palate with its creamy texture. Citrus notes discovered on the nose are found on the palate.

This Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs 2012 is ideal for an aperitif.
