The Story
NPU Extra Brut vintage Champagne, produced by Bruno Paillard in the Champagne region, France, 2008. 0.75L bottle. An iconic Champagne, an explosion of aromas that unfold over time, starting with ripe wild strawberries and then opening onto notes of acacia honey, candied pineapple, kumquat, and jasmine. As the wine unfolds, the sweetness of lime blossom and the spicy intensity of cedarwood emerge. Patient tasters will see the nose evolve towards notes of blackberry and blackcurrant. The attack is solid and velvety, with a combination of intense flavor and creamy texture. Generous flavors of candied apricots and lightly toasted gingerbread. The finish is balsamic and minty, true to the N.P.U. - Nec Plus Ultra signature!
