Champagne Le Brun de Neuville

On the limestone hillside of Côte de Sézanne where Chardonnay sculpts the landscape, their committed viticulture allows them to develop an enlightened range, marked by its terroir and by the high standards of those who contribute to it

Description

Champagne Le Brun de Neuville Millesime Extra Brut 2009

A blend of a large majority of Chardonnay, supplemented by few drops of Pinot Noir and aged in our cellars for almost a decade.

Grape Varietals & Region: 93% Chardonnay, 7% Pinot Noir from Côte de Sézanne, a 40 year old vineyard on southeast facing slopes, with clay & chalk soils

Taste Profile: Straw yellow in color. Fine effervescene, with mature fruity aromas on the nose, supplemented with yeasty notes of brioche & hazelnut.

Winemaking Process: Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tank, followed by malolactic fermentation in bottle, where it ages for 120 months on lees

Complex & Classic Sparklings

From buttery brioche to baked apple and toast, this style encapsulates vintage Champagnes and other aged sparkling wines from around the world

Methode Champenoise

The key element of the traditional method is secondary fermentation in the bottle, often achieved by adding a liqueur de tirage to the base wine. The end result is a soft, fine bubly mouthfeel
