A monumental Champagne for stylistic rigor and territorial charisma. The olfactory profile alternates noble citrus notes with chalky and extremely refined bakery hints. On the palate, it is dense, savory, and characterized by a masterful balance between the richness of the vintage and the verticality of the Grand Cru from Avize. A stylistic achievement that represents the pinnacle of biodynamics in Champagne.
Larmandier-Bernier Les Chemins d'Avize Blanc de Blancs Extra brut Grand Cru 2015
Les Chemins d'Avize 2015 by Larmandier-Bernier is a monumental work, a Blanc de Blancs that comes from two historic parcels ('Chemin de Plivot' and 'Chemin de Flavigny') in the heart of the Grand Cru of Avize. In a sunny and generous vintage like 2015, Pierre Larmandier managed to preserve an almost primordial chalky tension, typical of these soils where chalk surfaces prominently. Vinified with indigenous yeasts and aged in fine oak barrels, this Champagne is a hymn to verticality. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: crisp notes of citron peel, white flowers, and ginger blend with deep hints of bitter almond, freshly baked brioche, and a mineral trail reminiscent of chalk dust and flint.On the palate, it is sumptuous in its precision;The entrance is straightforward, dominated by a dense yet incredibly airy texture, stretching towards a savory, endless finish with an interminable aromatic persistence, characterized by an aristocratic citrusy freshness
