Champagne Moutard Pere et Fils Brut Grande Cuvée NV

Champagne, FranceToast and a sweep of sweet brioche opens the nose of this blanc de noirs, 100 percent pinot noir from the heavy clay, limestone-laced soils of Buxeuil and Polisy in the Côte des Bar. The Moutard family have been making wine since the seventeenth century, and this is their flagship wine. Thirty-six months on the lees, this full and toasty NV draws cherry and nuts along a creamy, doughy palate. A pin-prickling acidity lifts the weight to a lingering finish. A richer style, to pair with protein, at an excellent price.Tasted: 27 July 2016Tasted by: Prices:
