Lilbert-Fils 2014 Grand Cru Cramant Blanc de Blancs Champagne
Origin & Craftsmanship:
Sourced exclusively from the esteemed Grand Cru vineyards of Cramant in Champagne, France, this 2014 Blanc de Blancs is a masterclass in elegance and precision. Crafted from 100% Chardonnay grapes, it embodies the terroir’s signature chalky minerality and vibrant acidity, offering a refined drinking experience that balances power with finesse.
Tasting Profile:
A symphony of aromas greets the nose: crisp green apple, ripe peach, delicate white flowers, and a subtle hint of freshly baked brioche. The palate is medium to full-bodied, with a creamy, pillowy texture that gives way to a core of fleshy stone fruit. Racy acidity cuts through the richness, while a fine, persistent mousse adds a lively effervescence. The finish is bright and chalky, leaving a lingering impression of classical balance and youthful charm.
