Description

Discover Gueux Extra Brut Champagne – a captivating non-vintage expression from the esteemed family domaine of Champagne Lelarge-Pugeot in Vrigny, France. Crafted with meticulous care using biodynamic and organic practices (certified), this vegan-friendly sparkling wine offers an exceptional sensory journey for the discerning palate.

Experience a luxurious texture defined by its silky finesse and intriguing complexity. Dominated by Meunier (75%), balanced with Pinot Noir (20%) and a distinctive touch of Chardonnay (5%), it reveals vibrant layers of candied citrus zest, toasted almonds, and subtle ginger spice aromas. The palate delights with its pure fruit expression culminating in an unforgettable finish marked by a persistent mineral salinity – a signature of its unique terroir.

Sourced exclusively from two distinct parcels within Gueux village:
* Le Linguet: Southeast-facing Pinot Noir vines on sandy soils.
* Le Patenais: East-facing Meunier vines plus four precious rows of Chardonnay (accidentally planted in 1965!) on sandy loam and clay.

This happy historical accident contributes significantly to the wine’s remarkable depth and refined character – showcasing true grower champagne authenticity where vineyard individuality shines through. Spontaneously fermented using native yeasts and bottled unfined for purity.

Indulge in this sustainably produced French champagne that perfectly balances richness with vibrant freshness (12.5% alc). Ideal as an elegant aperitif or paired beautifully with delicate seafood or creamy cheeses.
