Description
Pertois Lebrun Le Fond du Bateau N°13 Chouilly Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut 2013
The history of Pertois Lebrun dates back to the early 1900s, with Clement and Antoine being the 5th generation of winegrowers today producing exclusively Grands Crus Blanc de Blancs, from their 9 hectares of vineyards spreading across the most prestigious villages of Cote des Blancs with “Grand Cru” distinction: Cramant, Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Chouilly, Oiry and Oger. They approach the vines with respect and humility, by using eco-responsible and sustainable winegrowing techniques. Their range of sustainable practices is naturally reflected in the quality of their grapes, an indispensable factor for wines that express all the aromatic nuances and frank minerality of their terroirs of origin, and hence their exceptional quality.
A top-tier Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs Champagne from the village of Cramant in the Côte des Blancs region of Champagne, France, produced by the family-owned house Pertois-Lebrun, is an Extra Brut Extra-Dry.
Nose : Delicate ripe citrus, green apple and exotic fruit (leetchi, pineapple) flavours with light vanilla and toasted notes,
liquorice aromas typical of the chalk from this terroir.
Palate : Fresh and mellow attack opening up to an expressive, full-bodied and consistent mouth feel. Lemony and long-lasting
freshness along with a real chalky sensation until the finish.
Pairings : This champagne makes a great accompaniment to a creamy chicken casserole, a sea bass and crayfish gratin with
champagne sauce, spicy Thai or Indian cuisine, fine aged pressed cheeses such as cantal, parmesan or sheep’s milk
cheese.
