Champagne Le Fond du Bateau 2018 Philippe Lancelot
The Champagne Le Fond du Bateau 2018 by Maison Philippe Lancelot is a Blanc de Blancs crafted exclusively from pure Chardonnay grown in Chouilly, a Grand Cru village in the Côte des Blancs. This cuvée is a product of the 2018 harvest, with biodynamically farmed grapes picked at optimal ripeness since 2012.
Originating from a parcel located below the renowned "Le Montaigu" lieu-dit, this Champagne embodies the Maison’s core values of purity, originality, and singularity. Vinified in both stainless steel tanks and oak barrels, it is made without chaptalization and with zero dosage, preserving the wine's natural elegance.
In the glass, the wine displays a refined golden hue, with fine and persistent bubbles. On the nose, delicate aromas of citrus, pear, and a hint of brioche emerge. The palate offers a silky texture balanced by vibrant minerality, delivering a Champagne of exceptional refinement.
Ideal for pairing with gastronomic dishes like scallop cassolettes or as a sophisticated aperitif, this cuvée, with its 12.5% alcohol content, is a testament to the artistry of Philippe Lancelot’s winemaking.
