Michel Arnould Memoire De Vignes 2015 Blanc De Noir

Grape variety blend : 100% old vine Pinot Noir.
Packaging : Special wax-sealed vintage bottle.

Presentation : This exceptional cuvee was created with grapes from our oldest vineyards: Coutures, planted 50 years ago on the Mont Boeuf slopes of Moulin de Verzenay, the Potences situated below, and finally Perthois near the lighthouse of Verzernay.

Dosage : approximately 8g/l.

Tasting notes : Sparkling white-gold color with beautiful gold tints. Fine and regular bubbles. At first, one finds Granny Smith apple and pink Pomelo notes on the nose, quickly succeeded by all the complexity of the Pinot Noir blend. Mature nectarine dances with violet and raspberry. Aeration will allow the depth of the blend to reveal its spicy character of pepper and menthol. In the mouth, this wine is both fleshy and engaging. Its natural structure gives it fleshy firmness, provides a long persistence and charms with its natural sweetness and smooth density.

Food and wine pairing : Drink with foie gras, in a terrine, pan-seared or on a salad, or with fine poultry such as a Bresse capon.
