The Story
Champagne Blanc de Blancs Longitude 1er Cru Extra Brut, produced by Larmandier-Bernier, a leading winemaker in the Côte des Blancs region of France. An organic, extra brut method, made from 100% Chardonnay. A wine that expresses sensational, yet still under-expressed, aromatic potential; mature yet elegant, profound yet lacking exuberance. The iodine note of its terroir is clear, and the underlying sweetness is peremptory, revealing the Chardonnay's mature roots. On the palate, it's even better: essential in dosage, yet meaty and deep in texture; juicy, pervasive, and supple enough to enhance the saline vibrations of its terroir.
