Description

Champagne Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Coeur de Mesnil Millesime 2010

Grape Varietals & Region: This champagne comes from old vines, facing south in the heart of Mesnil, with an average age of 40 years.

Taste Profile: Beautiful attack on the palate with aromas of citrus fruits, notably grapefruit, reinforced by the minerality specific to the Mesnil terroir.

Winemaking Process: This great wine is made without malolactic fermentation to preserve all its Chardonnay typicity and aromatic notes of praline and woody notes on the nose.

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
