2020 Legrand Latour Ypresien Brut Nature, Champagne, France
$135.00
Ypresian is a geologic period from 48-56 million years ago. The successive sedimentations that form this terroir are sometimes from fresh water and sometimes from sea water. From Meunier and Pinot Noir grown in soils of marl, clay, fine sand, and sandstone in the villages of Vandières and Verneuil, this blend has depth and drive with a crunchy mineral underpinning.
12 months in barrels on the fine lees; 40 months sur lattes; zero dosage.
