Description

2016 Champagne Larmandier-Bernier, Terre de Vertus, Blanc de Blancs, 1erCru, Non DoséCreamy, tangy, coddled yogurt richness. Dense and weighty, with layers and layers of richness: brled cream and cobnuts, honey and baked feta in pastry. Fascinating sprinkle of dried oregano grace notes. A kaleidoscope of flavour and texture tucked within a very firm, square frame. Linear, smoky end. Serious and magnificent. Jancis Robinson

This is a serious treat

Lamarche has destemmed the fruit and gently fermented this with an eye toward restraint

Composed of 81% Merlot

This wine shines with nobility

but something that always seems to be taken to the next level at this historic estate

and fresh bread dough

doubling its coverage to almost 15 hectares

Hints of candied licorice and cracked pepper build on the back half

are in slightly smaller volumes than 2016

always with a good balance
