Champagne L'Ineffable Blanc de Noirs Grand Cru Extra Brut
A bright straw color and made from 100% Pinot Noir from Verzy, the 2018 Champagne Grand Cru Verzy L'Ineffable Blanc De Noirs Extra Brut is ripe and slightly warming. It’s expressive with notes of black cherries, fresh violets, toasted bread, saline, and fresh hazelnut. The palate is medium-bodied, yet it offers a volume of expressive intensity and ripe black fruits, with a subtle mousse and a great finish. It has some warmth, but for Pinot Noir, it truly shines without feeling out of balance. The mousse feels a bit fragile; otherwise, it might be a point higher, and I have a slight preference for the underlying wine here in this range. Drink 2025-2040. Disgorged in April 2024, with 1 gram per liter dosage.
