Pommery

Grand Cru 2009 | Bottle 75cl - Box

Description

The 2009 Pommery Grand Cru is a cuvée of remarkable precision and great indulgence.

The Grand Vintage 2009 Pommery is made from the seven iconic Grand Crus of the Pommery estate located on the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Blancs.

Precise, refined, and intense, this Grand Cru Royal vintage seems blessed by the exceptional summer of 2009. After aging in cellars for over twelve years, it draws its essence from grapes of near-perfect quality.

The Grand Cru Royal 2009 is a blend of equal proportions of Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs and Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims.

Its pale gold color and extremely refined effervescence exude elegance and maturity.

A discreet and very fresh first nose reveals light floral and sweet notes.

Honeysuckle and acacia blossom lead to more fruity nuances of dried fig and frangipane. The Pinot Noir asserts itself in a few seconds with aromas of violet and blueberry.

Very straightforward and remarkably mineral, this vintage offers a velvety structure reminiscent of Champagne chalk on the palate. Notes of lime blossom and almonds can be detected. A few hints of toast add complexity to this cuvée.

Between tension and indulgence, the finish is perfectly balanced, supported by a touch of pink grapefruit.

A gastronomic wine par excellence, it is the ideal partner for many dishes. The 2009 Grand Cru will enhance rich dishes and is perfectly paired with foie gras, white meat in sauce, or 18-month-aged Comté cheese.
