Description

Champagne Le Mesnil Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru NV

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Chardonnay. The fruit for this wine comes from Grand Cru vineyards on eh chalky soils of the Cotes de Blancs. The estate takes its name from the town 'Le Mesnil-sur-Oger', 20 km south of Epernay and one of only 17 Villages in the Champagne region with the right to the designation 'Grand Cru'. 

Taste Profile: Le Mesnil Extra Brut is a blend of specially selected Chardonnay from different years. Straw gold colour with a fine and persistent mousse. Delicate lemon and brioche nose that will please any gourmand. Has finesse and lightness despite its direct, full and firm attack in the mouth. Complex medley of flavours from crisp green apple and lemon citrus to layers of toasty brioche, almond nuts, vanilla butter and cream.

Winemaking Process: 90% of the fruit comes from the harvest, 10% from reserve wines. Bottled & aged for 4 years before disgorging as Extra Brut.
