Vve Fourny & Fils Vintage 2011

From the grower estate Fourny & Fils in the Côte des Blancs, this Vintage 2011 is Chardonnay-driven and terroir focused. A precise, mineral Champagne with the fine mousse typical of Le Mesnil fruit, built for aging and extended complexity. Expect a crisp citrus core, subtle autolysis, and a long, clean finish. Excellent as an aperitif or with seafood and light courses.Tasting notes- Appearance: pale gold with a fine, persistent stream of bubbles- Nose: white flowers, lemon zest, green apple, hints of pear; chalky mineral backdrop; subtle brioche- Palate: crisp, dry style with bright acidity; citrus and orchard fruit flavors; creamy texture from lees aging; delicate almond notes- Finish: long, focused mineral finish with lingering citrus and faint toast
