Description

Champagne Les Hauts d'Epernay 2017 Philippe Lancelot

Champagne Les Hauts d'Epernay 2017 by Philippe Lancelot is an elegant expression of the art of champagne making, crafted from a masterful blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Meunier. The grapes are meticulously sourced from select parcels: "Mont Jaillard" in Cramant, planted in 1986, and "Sainte Antoine" in Cumières, planted in 1973. This champagne is distinguished by its zero dosage (0 g/L), which enhances the purity and finesse of the terroir.

The terroir from which the grapes are sourced is fundamental to the quality of Champagne Les Hauts d'Epernay 2017. "Mont Jaillard" in Cramant is renowned for its chalky soil, ideal for Chardonnay, which imparts minerality and freshness to the wine. "Sainte Antoine" in Cumières, on the other hand, with its clay-limestone soil, is perfect for Pinot Noir and Meunier, adding complexity and structure to the blend.

The vinification of this champagne involves careful fermentation in wooden barrels and stainless steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation that softens the acids, making the wine rounder and more harmonious. The long aging on the lees contributes to an extraordinary aromatic complexity, with well-integrated pastry and yeast notes.

The mousse is extremely fine and persistent, indicative of a slow and meticulous bottle fermentation. It presents a bright golden yellow hue, hinting at its richness and complexity.

On the nose, this champagne offers a complex and layered bouquet. Aromas of fruit, such as vineyard peach and sweet orange, are accompanied by floral and spicy notes. The aromatic profile is further enriched by hints of yeast and pastry, providing depth and finesse.

On the palate, Les Hauts d'Epernay 2017 stands out for its great body and breadth. The sip is deep, expressive, and incisive, with a velvety texture that envelops the palate. The mineral freshness is perfectly balanced with the fruity complexity, making it ideal both as an aperitif and to end an evening beautifully.

In summary, Champagne Les Hauts d'Epernay 2017 by Philippe Lancelot is a cuvée of great elegance and character, faithfully reflecting the prestigious terroir of origin and the meticulous vinification techniques that highlight its intrinsic qualities.
