Champagne Collet Esprit Couture NV
A rare assemblage of 11 Premier and Grand Crus selected in 2012. 60% Chardonnay from Grands Crus villages like Avize, Chouilly and Cramant contributes to the freshness, the tonicity and the elegance of the Esprit Couture. Vinification and ageing of the Chardonnay in champenois oak barrels allowed their aromas of brioche to develop fully. 40% Pinot Noir brings structure, softness and tenderness to the wine through iconic Grands Crus such as Aÿ, Mailly- Champagne or Verzy.
Appearence
Luminous, fairly fl uid,deep yellow-green color with deep lemon yellow highlights.
Nose
The first nose elegantly and distinctly recalls notes of butter, grilled hazelnut, cardamom, lime, verbena. When aerated Champagne reveals notes of apricot, blackcurrant, plum, biscuit, with accents of nougat, pineapple and toasted bread.
Palate
The contact on the palate is supple, fresh, fruity, sustained by an acidity reminding lemon. The middle mouth is orchestrated by chalky minerality that provides frankness, saltiness. Fruit and mineral matters are finely stitched and are carried by suppleness with aroma of citrus, exotic fruit. The fi nish is melted and sticks the palate with silky and light cloth.
