184 Champagne Cumières 1er Cru AC Brut Nature
Georges LavalGrape:50% Chardonnay, 25% Pinot Noir, 25% Pinot Meunier (12.5% alc.)
Brilliantly located south facing hillsides (Cumières produces better quality champagne than most of the so called grand cru villages), organically certified vines, hard work and good touch are behind this excellent champagne. It is made entirely from the 2004 vintage (no reserve wine) and was initially aged for ten months in a mix of new to eight year 220 litre and 350 litre barrels. Disgorged without dosage in February 2008, it has notable weight and vinosity, is rich and yet at the same time fresh and mineral. For drinking now to 2014+.
