Paul Lebrun Blanc de Blancs brut, L'Irremplacable

REGION: Champagne, France

VARIETIES: Chardonnay 100%

VITICULTURE: Conventional

YEAR: NV

ABV: 12.5%

INFO: 20% of the Chardonnay comes from the Côte des Blancs (Chouilly) and 80% from the Coteaux du Sézannais (Barbonne Fayel). The Sézanne terroir features a combination of clay, limestone, and marl soils, imparting complexity and richness to the wine. The Barbonne-Fayel sub-region is known for its chalky soils that lend a distinct minerality to the wines. The chalky soils of the Côte des Blancs contribute to the wines' crisp acidity and mineral character.

Vinification is carried out in stainless steel tanks. Ageing on lees for 3 years before disgorgement and a traditional Brut Dosage of 8gr/L.

Abundant notes of almonds on the nose, mixed with fresh apple, peach and citrus. Fresh, zesty and vibrant on the palate, the mouthfeel offers lovely density with a citrus bite. The mid-palate develops ripe citrus whilst the finish has a hint of salinity but carries the almonds on from the nose.
