Louis Brochet Extra Brut 1er Cru NV Champagne

Note from the wine maker: “Based on the same production methods as brut, this vintage is quite distinct due to its lower dose of expedition liquor, still produced using our reserve champagnes. Lovers of dry wines will be delighted with this champagne which is the very expression of wine in its original form.”

Note from the wine maker: “With hits intense aroma, our Extra-brut is a subtle blend of white-flesh fruits (apple, pear), honey, vanilla and acacia. It slow dose of expedition liquor reveals the intrinsic quality of a naturally well-balanced champagne with the blend of several years of harvesting, offering a full-bodied pallet, with extreme finesse, clarity, and a tight and precise taste. This vintage will surprise champagne lovers over an aperitif and will awaken your taste buds after a meal with friends.”

Note from Stanislas Buffet: “The robe : Limpid and bright with pale gold colour. Very sustained effervescence with very thin bubbles.

The nose : Charming white flower aromas (acacia), slight tea notes, white fruits (apple pear), exotic fruits (pineapple) and suble notes of honey and bun providing a beautiful complexity.

The mouth : Concentrated foam with very thin bubbles. Fresh palate at the first taste. Aromatic range including citrus notes (lemon, orange), white fruits (apple, pear). Very elegant balance between sugar and acidity. Long persistence of flavour with discreet bun notes.”
