Blanc de Blancs Brut Nature

Lelarge-Pugeot

Stunning and unique. An initial crisp acidity gives way to generous floral, ripe pear, peach, earthy burnt caramel, and myriad citrus notes, complemented by a subtle twist of orange peel oils and sultana raisin complexity. This is the finesse and power dyad we always hope for from a Blanc de Blancs, replete with that long, lingering, bruised apple finish. Drink now or forget a case in the cellar to revisit every year or two—this wine can and will develop further.
