Vilmart & Cie Champagne 1er Cru Brut Grande Reserve NV 1.5L

The blond colour with silvery tints heralds a wine made predominantly from Pinot Noir grapes. It is enlivened by a fine effervescence, with calm, regular bubbles feeding a lively, elegant cordon on the surface. The nose is expressive and elegant, testifying to the depth of this wine. Yellow fruit aromas open up, notably peach and stewed apricot, combined with more complex notes of hawthorn and acacia. On the second nose, subtle notes of menthol and sweet wood enhance the aromatic range. On the palate, the attack immediately reveals the lively, clean character of this cuvée. Fresh fruit flavours such as conference pear and golden apple mingle with hints of butter biscuit. The finish is silky, with remarkable aromatic persistence.
