Mignon-Gentil Champagne Grand Cru Blanc de Blancs

France / Champagne / Avize Grand Cru BdB
 
Non-vintage Champagne: Mignon-Gentil Grand Cru BdB  offers a light pale yellow color with sustained deep and bright green reflections. The appearance is fluid and fresh with fine bubbles that fuel a delicate column.

The nose evokes an acacia perfume, wet chalk, white pepper, pear, the Carensac licorice. It evolves with aeration by floral notes, recalling with the aromas of the linden, the convallaria, the rose, the leaves along with zest of raspberry, lemon, fresh hazelnut.

The palate is soft and fresh with a creamy effervescence. The wine develops in the palate with a light density of white fleshy fruit, pear and apple, with a green lemon pulp sensation. The structure is firm and complex animated by a lemony acidity, balanced by a very pure stony and chalk minerality. The mid-palate slender by a concentrated finish, peppermint, vertical and fresh, enhanced by aromas of fresh herbs, dill, mixed with a creamy mineral sensation.
The Blanc de Blancs illustrates the terroir of Avize, fragrant, mineral, and fresh.
