Champagne Launay: The Gold Range
20th December 2014
Blanc de blancs Extra Brut Vintage 2008
(100% Chardonnay from Barbonne Fayel)
Deep light gold. A subtle bouquet of white flowers, and ripe white peaches, leading on to notes of dried fruit (pineapple and dried apricot). The texture is supple and mineral, intense with very good length.
Grande Réserve
(50% Chardonnay – 50% Pinot Noir)
Golden. Notes of candied citrus fruits and orange marmalade. Long, high quality texture.
Expression
(70% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir)
Delicate pale gold color, very bright. With perfumes of flowers, pear, cherry napoleon, nose has a lot of finesse and subtlety. Mouth is fruity with a very long persistence thanks to some lemony aftertaste notes that prolong tasting.
