Louis de Sacy Brut

The Louis de Sacy Brut is a blend of three varietals selected exclusively from Grand Cru classified “terroirs”: 60% Pinot Noir, 5% Pinot Meunier, 35% Chardonnay (10% aged in oak). Beautiful golden robe with very fine bubbles spreading out a complex, subtle and well-balanced nose of red fruits, citrus, spices. Rich and powerful, this Champagne wraps light red berry, pastry and citrus flavors around a firm spine. Balanced, with a creamy, tactile finish that's long and expansive.
