DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Produced from Geoffroy’s oldest parcels and with tirage under cork rather than crown cap, the newly released 2012 Extra-Brut Premier Cru Millésimé Terre was disgorged in January 2023 with four grams per liter dosage. Offering up aromas of peach, pear, sweet almonds, pastry and white flowers, it’s medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a layered, vinous core of fruit and a long, vibrant finish. It’s a terrific success.
These grapes, blended in fairly equal quantities, give the wines of Champagne their wonderful flavors and aromas, with the Pinot Noir offering length and backbone, and the Chardonnay varietal giving its acidity and dry, biscuity nature. It isn't unusual to sometimes see Champagne labeled as 'blanc de blanc', meaning it is made using only Chardonnay varietal grapes, or 'blanc de noir', which is made solely with Pinot Noir.
