La Côte à Bras 2015 | Bottle 75cl - Box

Description

The 2015 Côte à Bras from Maison Joseph Perrier is an atypical cuvée in Champagne. It is a single-varietal cuvée from a single vineyard and a single vintage. It is made from Pinot Noir grapes grown on the La Côte à Bras vineyard in Cumières.

The year 2015 saw a hot, dry summer followed by rain at the end of the summer. However, the Pinot Noir grapes held up well, reaching a level of maturity that produced rich, full-bodied and structured wines.

The grapes are pressed and vinified separately before aging for at least six years in the cellars of the House in Châlons-en-Champagne.

This Blanc de Noirs champagne has a deep golden yellow color.

The bouquet is composed of exhilarating and delicious aromas of bergamot, candied orange, and fruit in syrup.

On the palate, the attack is fresh and chiseled. The Pinot Noir expresses itself fully through aromas of heather honey and intense fruity notes that coat the palate. The finish is mineral and iodized.

La Côte à Bras 2015 is perfect as an aperitif with its great personality, but can also be served with langoustine and mesclun salad or lightly peppered roasted blue lobster with grapefruit coulis and beurre blanc.

"In 2007, my father had the original idea of working this plot in an exceptional way: one plot, one grape variety, one year, one wine. This cuvée is the expression of Pinot Noir from Cumières, fresh and salty. Benjamin Fourmon, Managing Director of the House, 6th generation."
