Domaine Le Monts Fournois Champagne Cote Chouilly Grand Cru

Vintage: 2010

. Original price: . Final price: $139.99

A new adventure founded by Raphaël and Vincent Bérêche, along with their cousins Juliette Alips as winemaker. Located in the north part of the Montagne de Reims, in the sub-area called La Grande Montagne, the Premier Cru Les Monts Fournois, in Ludes, will be the focus of the domaine. Until the first vintage releases in a few years, the Domaine is offering a very small selection of mostly vintage Grand Cru Champagne under their Crus Sélectionnés. Using the extensive and strong family grower relationships developed by her cousins, Juliette is able to source tiny quantities of superb champagne from iconic vineyards to craft these exceptional wines.

Well-honed and refreshing, with bright buoyancy to the lively mousse as it carries a rich display of grainy pear, ripe white raspberry and pineapple fruit, plus chopped almond, preserved lemon and pastry cream notes. Long and well-spiced, with a pronounced vein of chalky minerality on the focused finish
