Champagne Robert Barbichon Blanc de Blancs NV
Côte des Bar, Champagne, FranceNow into its 4th generation, Champagne Robert Barbichon is based in the Côte des Bar, and their 9 hectares are Demeter certified biodynamic (since 2012). This BdB blends 80% chardonnay with 20% pinot blanc, and is from vintage 2017. It was disgorged July 2022 with 3 g/L. The pinot blanc provides a very perfumed white cherry and floral note, running through creamy red apple, meringue, custard and lemon peel on the riper palate. The finish lingers with cherry liqueur and a gentle limestone hum. Of a place.Tasted: 09 November 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:France | $35.00 | 750ml | France (euros) |
