Alexandre Penet Extra Brut Champagne Premier Cru NV is a refined and elegant sparkling wine that showcases the exceptional quality of the Champagne region. Crafted by Alexandre Penet, a renowned Champagne producer, this Extra Brut Champagne is a true expression of the terroir and craftsmanship.
Grape Varietals & Region: Alexandre Penet Extra Brut Champagne is made from a precise blend of 25% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir, and 25% Pinot Meunier grapes sourced from premier cru vineyards in Champagne, France. These grapes are carefully selected to capture the essence of the region's unique terroir.
Taste Profile: Prepare your palate for a symphony of flavors. Alexandre Penet Extra Brut Champagne offers a harmonious balance of freshness and depth. Delicate notes of citrus, apple, and white flowers dance on the palate, while a hint of toasty brioche adds complexity. The wine's fine bubbles and vibrant acidity lead to a crisp and lingering finish.
Winemaking Process: Alexandre Penet follows time-honored Champagne-making traditions. The grapes are handpicked and gently pressed to extract the purest juice. After the primary fermentation, the wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle, resulting in the formation of bubbles. Extended aging on the lees enhances the wine's texture and complexity.
