Benoît Lahaye Millésime Brut Grand Cru 2018
Rich, full-bodied, and deeply mineral profile. On the nose, yellow fruits, ripe citrus, brioche, and chalky notes emerge. On the palate, it is voluminous and precise, characterized by a sculptural structure and a noble freshness that ensures a persistence of rare elegance; masterful perlage.
Benoît Lahaye Millésime Brut Grand Cru 2018
The Benoît Lahaye Millésime 2018 is a monument to sculptural nobility, a monumental interpretation of Bouzy Pinot Noir in a generous and masterful vintage. This Champagne, the product of old vineyards cultivated biodynamically, elevates the power of the Grand Cru to absolute nobility. On the nose, it is an ecstasy of opulent and vibrant complexity: notes of ripe red fruit, yellow peach, and candied apricot merge with deep scents of sourdough, toasted hazelnut, chalk, and a trace of oriental spices of extraordinary nobility. On the palate, it is masterful: the entry is broad and textured, supported by a noble acidic backbone that cuts through the fruit's richness, and by a sculptural, dense, and silky mousse, finishing on an endless, savory finale of absolute nobility.
