(3 BOTTLES) Nicolas Feuillatte - Grand Cru Pinot Noir Vintage 2010 - Blanc de Noirs - Champagne - 75cl

Blend:

All the noble character of Grand Cru Pinot Noir from the Champagne region is revealed in this powerful, well-structured wine.

“A POWERFUL AND STRUCTURED WINE FROM THE FINEST PINOT NOIR FROM THE GRAND CRU CLASSIFIED VILLAGES.”

Appearance:

Magnificent golden straw in colour, crystal-clear, shimmering and flecked with golden glints. The impetuous effervescence is of great finesse and forms a delicate stream of bubbles in the glass.

Nose:

Powerful and typical of Pinot Noir. Inviting fragrances of extremely ripe fruits, with highly concentrated, almost candied aromas pleasingly come to the fore; as the wine opens, citrus fruits and apricots begin to appear and jostle for position with exquisite dried fruit notes of almond, date and fig, making this a rich and original experience.

Palate:

Fresh, powerful and refined, the Grand Cru Pinot Noir reveals its silky character to stunning effect amid its generous, rounded, well-built structure. Assisted by the glorious effervescence, the full flavours and freshness marry to perfection. Amid the flavours revealed, autumn fruits and straw thatch linger persistently.
