Champagne Eric Maître Brut Tradition NV 135

smoked gouda cheese

aging the wine for 16 months in French oak barrels to perfectly marry bold

On the nose

it delivers a medium-to-full body packed with concentrated black fruit density

blowing the mind of a wine nerd who thinks Pinot Meunier is only a low-tier blending grape

the 2017 vintage arrived at its peak of absolute harmony

cultivating the fruit across the hillsides of La Morra and Verduno where the vines tunnel into ancient silty-marly soils laced with calcareous sand that naturally checks growth and concentrates varietal flavor

or investing in a monumental collectible that will continue to evolve beautifully for decades

his ancestors became winemakers after the French Revolution

well-drained sandy loam soils that force the roots to dig deep

Striking nose of salty lime peel

silky botanical sweetness
