Juillet-Lallement Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru NV
The Juillet-Lallement Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru NV is an elegant Champagne made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes sourced from the prestigious Grand Cru vineyards in Verzy, located in the Montagne de Reims. This Blanc de Blancs (100% Chardonnay) highlights the finesse, minerality, and citrus freshness that come from these exceptional vineyards. As a non-vintage Champagne (NV), it is crafted from a blend of multiple vintages to achieve a consistent and balanced expression of the house style.
Appearance: Pale straw yellow with a fine, persistent mousse, displaying the wine's vibrancy and refinement.
Aroma: The nose is fresh and delicate, with aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and white peach, along with subtle floral notes of acacia and white blossom. Hints of brioche, almond, and a touch of chalky minerality add depth and complexity to the bouquet, reflecting the Champagne’s time spent aging on the lees.
Taste: On the palate, this Blanc de Blancs is crisp and lively, offering flavours of citrus, green apple, and pear, balanced by a vibrant acidity. The wine has a creamy, smooth texture from the fine bubbles, while subtle notes of toasted brioche and hazelnut come through from the lees aging. There is a distinct minerality that lends structure and elegance, keeping the wine fresh and well-balanced.
Finish: The finish is long and refined, with lingering notes of citrus and a slight chalky minerality, leaving a crisp and refreshing aftertaste.
Food pairing: This Blanc de Blancs pairs beautifully with seafood such as oysters, prawns, or lobster, where the wine’s acidity and minerality enhance the briny flavours. It also complements light appetizers, sushi, and creamy cheeses like goat cheese or Brie, as well as dishes like grilled fish or risotto, balancing the richness with its bright freshness.
