Pommery Champagne Blanc de Blancs (N.V.)

A beautifully balanced and elegant Blanc de Blancs from Pommery with pleasing acidity and minerality. Produced from 100% Chardonnay sourced from some of the most prestigious vineyards in Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims. Its characteristic complexity comes from extended cellar aging in  Pommery's 18 kilometers of hollowed out of chalk cellars, 30 meters below the ground.

Pale gold in colour with a hint of green. Superbly balanced with fine beads. Elegant aromas of morning jasmine and delicate acacia. The palate reveals structured citrus, white peaches and green apple. The finish is supported by pink grapefruit and frangipane.

A match made in heaven with fresh rock oysters. Also try with light summer salads and ceviche.

Tasting Notes

93 James Suckling
Lots of biscuit and pie crust with hints of cream and cooked apple. Full and very layered with fine bubbles and beautiful length. Lots of enticing, rich fruit. Creamy. 3 1/2 years on the yeast. Mostly fruit from 2017, an excellent year for chardonnay, from the Mountains de Reims. 20% reserve wines. 8g/L dosage. Drink or hold.
