apricot and peach from Viognier

Sensuously textured rather than brittle

vanilla and spice

Flavours of ripe apples and honey and a creamy texture give the wine richness and weight whilst retaining the thrillingly zippy tang of Chenin's acid backbone

Emmanuel Brochet, Le Mont Benoit, Extra Brut NV Coquimbo apricot and peach from ViognierWe love our Grower Champagnes and this is no exception. A full bodied, vinous fizz that's demanding of attention Vivid and vibrant in its energy, crisp green apples and white flowers abound and compliment a briny oyster shell minerality. plenty of flesh right off the bat, with a touch of the oxy stuff coming through later on. Length for days, salty too.
