Larmandier-Bernier Terre de Vertus Premier Cru 2015

100% PREMIER CRU CHARDONNAY, DISTINCTIVELY MINERAL AND PIERCING, FROM THE LEADER OF THE GROWER CHAMPAGNE MOVEMENT

 

"the 2015 Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs Premier Cru Terre de Vertus offers up generous aromas of stone and orchard fruit mingled with hints of buttery pastry and blanched almonds, reflecting the ripe, sunny profile of the vintage. Full-bodied, rich and vinous, it's a muscular, fleshy rendition of this cuvée" - William Kelley, Wine Advocate

 

"Terre de Vertus is one of three single-terroir Chardonnay wines produced at this Estate and is certainly the most famous. It is from the chalky 1er Cru vineyard plots of Les Barillers and Les Faucherets, situated mid-slope in Vertus. These sites make arguably the most explicitly mineral wines of the village. 

You can expect a wonderfully fine, savoury dry white that offers complex hints of bosc pear, fresh salt, earth, preserved lemon and chalk. It's ultra-fine and pure and although it is terrific now (don't be scared to decant!), you will be amply rewarded if you can rest it for three to six years on cork." - Bibendum
