Lelarge-Pugeot

Very light golden colour with refined effervescence. In the nose: beautiful baker’s yeast, green apple, fresh plum, pineapple core, malty tones, and saffron. No Sulphur, No Dosage. Free of any manipulation or additions, this laser-focused wine is supremely chiselled. On the palate it sparks with acidity, vibrating down the center from start to finish like an electric guitar. Posture correcting notes of green apple, chromium, and petrichor — wow. The portion of the fruit vinified in smaller barrels lends even more breadth and texture to this tensile wine. A mouth-watering delight for the true fanatics of the grower Champagne set.
