Valentin Leflaive Blanc de Blancs CV 17-50 Champagne
Short Description
It is a blended Champagne for 52% of wines harvested at Vertus classified Premier Cru, for 27% at Bergères les Vertus also Premier Cru and for 21% at Cramant classified Grand Cru. Another very qualitative aspect: the average age of the vines is 40 years.
These sloping crus are all oriented south-southeast on the Côte des Blancs, renowned for the quality of its Chardonnay grape variety and the quality of its clay-limestone soils, thus contributing to the birth of exceptional champagnes.
This champagne is a Blanc de Blancs, aged for 34 months on slats in a deep cellar at constant temperature and sheltered from light.
The gold color reveals emerald reflections
On the nose and on the palate, citrus notes such as lemon from Menton, pink grapefruit from Florida or clementine from Corsica, punctuated by touches of white flowers such as spring hawthorn, osmanthus or lime blossom.
The finish melts gently into saline and suave notes.
Food/wine pairings: as an aperitif served at 10-12°C, but not less so as not to tarnish the aromas and flavors of this champagne.
Will go very well with oysters from Marennes Oléron, Belon from the Emerald Coast in Brittany. Perfect with canapes of caviar from Aquitaine or tapenade with black olives from Provence, langoustines from Croisic, sea urchins or sea bass grilled a la plancha.
Bottles to be kept in the cellar away from light and noise with a humidity level of around 70%.
We suggest successive tastings in order to measure its olfactory and gustatory evolution until its qualitative peak.
