Product information compiled from producer, importer and reference sources.
100% Chardonnay. Organic. Clay-Limestone with a majority of white limestone. Elevage in barrels sur lie for 6 months, then 2 years in bottle ‘sur lattes’. Disgorged in May 2013, bottled brut nature. Elegant and complex wine with aromas of white pepper, white flowers, and white fruit.
Notes of ripe lemon. Good tension and a straightforward and powerful first flavor, which finishes with finesse and a long beautiful minerality
According to the importer's website: "Martin-Fontaine is the all Chardonnay counterpart to Cognaux, made by the same methods for an exhilarating combination of richness and creamy texture with high-toned, citrus-laden freshness. All three are bottled as Brut Nature, testament to the full ripeness that Gerard and Benedicte achieve through their biodynamic farming.
Ruppert-Leroy is one of the most exciting new producers to emerge from Champagne in years, so much so that some of the most difficult to book tables in Paris, such as Le Châteaubriand, Septime and Vivant, have fought to secure allocations of the miniscule production. And we anticipate even greater Champagnes from them in the years to come."
