6 bottles Champagne Cuvée Perceval Vintage 2011
Highstreet Price: £ 270
Caractéristiques:
Chardonnay (50%) from grand cru plots in Cramant and Pinot noir (50%) from racy plots with names like Les Bignards, Les Baltoits, located in the Marne Valley at Monthelon and Boursault create the character of this champagne bearing Madame Gilles Lancelot's maiden name.
Tasting:
Delicate golden colour with restrained sparkle. Fine bubbles.
Spicy nose, blackcurrant scent.
Great combination of Pinot Noir's power and Chardonnay's delicacy. The perfect balance.
Wine and food pairing:
Great through a meal. At its best with red meats or a piece of beef in sauce. (Why not open it in advance to give it time to enhance its quality ?)
2011 VINTAGE
This vintage was marked by a long cold winter followed by almost summery weather early in the vegetative cycle.
Vine growth was therefore rapid and precocious, an early start felt until harvest time. Ripening was influenced by peculiar and sometimes unpredictable (thunderstorms, heat waves) climatic conditions in August. But in the end we harvested sound quality grapes .
The harvest began on August 24th 2011... an unheard-of date.
The scent of fruit, fresh and slightly acid wafting during alcoholic fermentations set us a dreaming ,
titillating our tastebuds. A vintage to be noted...
