Simonet Brut Blanc de Blancs

This is Pehu-Simonet's contrast with its Blanc de Noirs from the Montagne de Reims. It has the same dryness as that wine, but it features a more open character. There is, of course, minerality imparted from the chalk soil, which is balanced deliciously with an intense citrus flavor. Age for another year in bottle.

Minerally, with hints of smoke and crystallized honey accenting flavors of yellow plum, lemon curd, marzipan and a touch of bread dough. Expressive, with bright, mouthwatering acidity and refined texture. Disgorged August 2011. Drink now through 2018. 40 cases imported.
