This Fins Lieux No. 2 cuvée from Maison Pehu-Simonet showcases Pinot Noir grapes harvested in the "Les Crayères de la voie de Reims" vineyard in Verzenay Grand Cru during the 2014 harvest.
2014 was a year of contrasts, with a magnificent, very dry spring followed by a very hot start to the summer, before the trend reversed with July and August feeling almost autumnal. The Pinots from this vintage display subtle aromas of tart white fruits and sometimes hints of red fruits. They show good structure, liveliness and freshness on the palate.
This Blanc de Noirs is vinified partly in oak barrels from the Verzy forest to bring out the great character of this wine.
After bottling, the bottles spend more than 60 months in the cellars of the Maison and are dosed at 1.5 g/L after disgorging.
