Champagne Rene Geoffroy Volupte 1er Cru Extra Brut 2016
Vineyards
Winemaking and Maturation
Manual harvesting with sorting. Traditional Coquard wine press. Plot-by-plot vinification in temperature-controlled enamelled steel vats; reserve wine partly kept in oak casks. Avoidance of malolactic fermentation.
Tasting Notes
Champagne with golden highlights reflections and fine light foam. On the nose, exotic fruits (pineapple, lychee, grapefruit) blend with a delicate minerality to bring a real purity. A refined and silky mouth reveals a remarkable skeleton punctuated by delicate aromas of brioche or even fresh butter.
