VV26 Grand Cru

単一区画が語る、グラン・クリュの深み。

グラン・クリュの選び抜かれた単一区画のシャルドネから生まれる、特別なキュヴェ。深みと美しい輝きを持つ濃い黄金色に、繊細な泡の連なりが続きます。木樽香とともに、繊細に乾燥させたスパイス、洋梨のコンポート、熟したイチジク、白トリュフの香りが立ちのぼり、ほのかな酸化のニュアンスが奥行きを添えます。長期熟成によるシルキーな質感と長い余韻。鴨のフィレや熟成したジビエとともにお愉しみください。

Tasting note

The appearance is a deep golden color with beautiful brilliance and delicate strings of bubbles. The aroma combines the scent of oak barrels with an enchanting quality, featuring notes of delicately dried spices, pear compote, and ripe figs. The intoxicating aroma of white truffles intertwines with delicate oxidative nuances, adding depth and complexity. On the palate, the texture is mellow and silky due to long-term aging. Flavors of toasted almonds and patisserie lead into a finish of vanilla and oak barrel notes, while the delicate effervescence and long aftertaste enhance the overall experience.

Winemaking & technical data

Viticulture: A single plot in Cramant, a Grand Cru-classified village. It uses century-old vines planted in 1926, some of which are still producing today. The vines' roots penetrate several meters deep into the chalky soil of the Côte des Blancs, capturing the essence of this special terroir.

Winemaking: The entire volume is fermented and aged in Burgundy barrels for one year (12 months). Malolactic fermentation is carried out. 20-30% reserve wine is used, followed by over 8 years of long-term aging on lees. Bottled in June 2016. Light dosage with 6g/L residual sugar.
