Charles Legend – Blanc de Blancs – Gold Summer Days
21st December 2017
Congratulations to Charles Legend with their Blanc de Blancs which received a Gold medal at The World’s Finest Glass of Bubbly awards 2017.
A panel of 36 top industry wine judges tasted all the entries for 2017 and were able to not only scores wines with medals, but also place them in to easy to understand categories such as Summer Days: “Does not have to be a highly complicated wine. Will offer a light, fruity and easy going taste.”
This exceptional “cuvée”, the jewel in their crown, is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes. To add a little complexity to the Chardonnay, this cuvée is aged in French oak barrels (2 years ageing on Great White Burgundies) which gives it a very light and woody finish. Blanc de Blancs is available in bottles of 75cl, Magnum and Mathusalem.
